barred rock stopped laying

[Reaper]

my BR stopped laying about a 3 wks ago should i be concerned or is this normal for them its a little cold here but I'm still getting eggs from my other birds she seems healthy still eating and drinking. so just not sure what the problem could be?

How old is she? They go thru their first adult molt at 14/18 months old. That is one of many reasons. Hows her diet and general appearance? Is she acting relatively normal besides not laying?

she is not even 12 months yet. she still seems to be acting as she always has.

Well it can be a number of things and where she is acting normal and its been 3weeks I would tend to doubt she is egg bound. There is a sticky at the top of the post page for all the reasons she might not be laying,you just have to eliminate them 1 by 1.
