How long does it usually take a hen to get back in her groove to lay after being stressed? I brought home a new Araucana (13 months old) and have had her three weeks in isolation. She was laying previously, but not since I've brought her home. In another few weeks I will introduce her (run to run) to my two girls, which I'm sure will be another stressful time. When do you think she will she lay again?
 
Depends on the hen and her personality I would assume. I gave two hens to a friend and they never missed a beat. Laid for her that day and continued.
