I couldn't find 1 of me hens this morning, after a little hunt round the garden i found her sitting in a tiny corner behind a load of building materials.
When she left the corner i went to investigate and found her little nest with 5 eggs in it, i did wander why she had stopped laying, obviously now i know she hadn't stopped just decided to start laying else where.
She isn't broody because she hasn't been sitting on her nest, just laying there, the rest of the time she has been free ranging with the other hens.
Why after 1 1/2 years would she suddenly decide to stop laying in her nest box? I don't understand it.
Can any one give me some insight to this?
TIA
