My chickens are 25 weeks old (almost 6 months), and have been laying for about 2 months. About 4 days ago, we realized that one of my chickens (the Araucana) did not lay. She hasn't laid for 4 days now, and I'm worried something might be wrong.
Could she be molting? I thought they couldn't molt until they were about 18 months old. It isn't even fall yet, so it couldn't be a reaction to cold weather or less daylight, right?
I'm worried for her. Please help!
