    Easter Eggers all stopped laying at 15 months old. Been almost 4 months now.

    Why do some hens not lay eggs?

    We had a black hen who tragically died at two years old, but she had never laid an egg. And we have another white hen who's near three years old and has never laid an egg. Do certain chickens not lay eggs or not want to?
