two of my three turkey hens have stopped laying & the third one is still laying, but gone broody.

is it normal for the two hens to have stopped laying? they have been laying for about a month and a half....

the broody hen I've marked two eggs to leave her & collect just the one egg she lays daily....
 
All 4 of my yearling hens were laying machines this year. 3/4 of my Hens went broody and stopped laying, around that same time the 4th stopped laying (only about 1 egg every 3-4 days now).

Funny enough today is hatch day. All 3 hens nested on top of each other and have about 20 some eggs they juggle between them. 3 hatched out so far. Good luck!
