Broken wing healed but still not laying eggs

[MarkDawson]

I have a 2-3 year old hen, a Black Baird, we think lol. Had a broken wing about 5 weeks ago and stopped laying eggs. Wrapped wing for a few weeks and its all healed and she flaps it fine. But she stopped laying eggs when she broke wing and even though healed she still isnt laying. Any thoughts?

Can you post a picture of her? By the way welcome to BYC!!

The break and stress of healing has caused her to take a break in her laying cycle. She may even molt before she resumes laying.

I agree! That’s what’s happening with my bird too!

My experience... my white quail hen injured her right wing after my mistake to release her 80 cm from air to ground. She laid one egg after 7 days. In 30 days after the incident, there were only 6-7 eggs laid. In the last week there was no egg laid. I am hopeless too much about her laying. I hold her as a pet.
