I just came across this thread and am experiencing a similar experience with the same breeds. Although my EE are laying, but not as frequently with the cooler winter temps. For the past few weeks I'm only getting green or blue eggs, which means the SLW aren't laying??? Background: They do...

I just had the same thing happen. They all seem to have runny poo now.

Yes the rooster is April born. I didn't expect a Rooster, but luckily was able to keep him. They day after the incident, Ani came out into the run. I also found a small marble size egg about 26 hours later in her spot:) I will go ahead and try moving the food out to the run. Then coaxing...
