    I gave my hen a bath two days ago. quit laying.

    A couple days ago I have my tufted araucana hen, Lucy, a bath. She has not layed an egg since... Ughh... And I was just beginning to collect her eggs for the incubator... Any one have any suggestions? Or reasons why that would have made her stop laying? Thanks in advance!
