Hey Guys,
I've got 6 hens, 4 pullets and 2 ex-battery hens at around 18 months old, the two of which are my only layers and have laid 6/7 days no problem for the last 3 months.
Recently one stopped laying, and about 2 weeks later the other stopped also. Not a single egg in about 10 days now.
It's getting colder here in the UK, so i'm wondering if they're going into moult? I also got a 25K bag of mixed corn so i've added 1 scoop to every 5 scoops of layers pellets. I wonder if it's coincidence that since i've added the small amount of corn they don't want to lay?
Any ideas?
Thanks
