26 weeks, eh? With those birds of that breeding, I would personally be looking for nests somewhere, perhaps. Any chance that might be the case?

My partridge plymouth rocks are 26 weeks, have bright red combs, make a lot of noise, and I saw 1 squatting the other day. Still no eggs.

no they are 100% CONFINED IN THEIR COOP AND RUN. NO SECRET NESTS sorry caps locks wass on​

Could it be because they reached maturity as the day lengths started to shorten, which reduces or shuts down laying? So they may be getting mixed signals from their bodies and from the seasonal indicator.

I got one that's 28 weeks, no eggs. Hang in there. There's eggs in there and they WILL come out.
