That, as far as my knowledge goes, won't influence the quantity of eggs laid. To increase productivity, it would be certainly best to provide plenty of good quality food and regular health checks to make sure Harry is fit and healthy. Please do not hesitate to contact us again on the forum or by requesting a consultation if you have any more questions or to discuss it any further.
