Thanks for reaching out about Sweety. It is very difficult to prevent egg laying in your situation, even with hormones. A well rounded, healthy diet is most important, to replace nutrients lost in egg production, especially eggs. Pellets, green vegetables, a vegetable protein source are very important. Photo period manipulation, removal of nesting sites/materials can help reduce egg production. Good luck.
