Chickens Not laying

[garneryan]

I have 4 chickens, all started laying the end of August. All of the sudden they have really slowed down. we were getting 3-4 a day. We have only had 5 this entire week. Nothing has really changed except it has gotten cooler. They don't seem to be molting and We have added a light so they get 13-14 hrs of light a day. Any thoughts on what is going on?

They could be molting.

Welcome to BYC.
What breed(s) so you have? Non production breeds can sometimes take short breaks. There is also the possibility that there has been some change around the coop like, construction or a dog coming around. If you just started with the lights that is change that takes about two weeks for them to get used to.
