Chickens won't lay eggs after moving coop

[Rachel504]

Hello. Yesterday we moved our chickens to a new chicken coop, but today I found only one egg in their nesting boxes. Normally I get 5 or more. Have they stopped laying because of the move? I'm worried this might be bad for them. I would appreciate any advice about this.

Chickens simply hate change. Give them time, it may take 2 weeks or so for them to settle down. You're not hurting them at all.

Ah, alright. Thanks for the response.

Agree, i put a few new nesting boxes in an extended their sleeping quarters and we go no eggs for 9 days, usually we were getting 8 a day.
