My crested Polish is 6 months old and laid her first egg on the 10th of August. She laid 6 eggs in 8 days and now has stopped laying. It did coincide with a heat wave, and bad air quality due to the fires here in California. Could that be the reason she may have stopped laying? I have been taking care that they get iced treats through the day and constantly am replenishing the water. She has also been screaming a lot and does go in the nesting box ( or rather pot, she uses my orange ant pot) a few times but no eggs in the last 5 days now. Do you all think she is ok? I've attached a video of her laying her first egg. Yes I did get it on camera as I was following her for two days as I knew there was something coming :). Not bad for a first time/new feathered Mamma eh?

The heat will make them stop laying.

Did she start back up yet?
