My 1+ year old RIR hen has always laid very big eggs very regularly. The last few days she hasn't laid any and has been laying in the yard. She will walk with the flock and then lay completely down even on her side and when they move she will too and then lay down again. Her vent area was yucky so I cleaned it up but at a loss to what could be happening.
 
I'm sorry to hear that! The problem with chickens is that it is so hard finding out what's wrong with them. It might be that she is egg bound so to find out, massage around her bottom area to see if you could feel an egg shaped lump. Hope this helped and if there are any more symptoms please say. Hope your chickens improves xx
