   We were getting between 10-14 eggs per day from our 16 chickens. Within the last 2 weeks, two hens have become "broodie" and the egg count went to 5-7. Should I remove the hens and see if production starts back up or....,?

   Odds are broodiness and drop in egg production are coincidental. Egg production can be expected to drop as molt approaches.
