Advice please! My chickens stopped laying eggs all at the same time. It has been a week now. They are only a year old. I can't see that it is in relation to their environment, food, health, etc. All the same.

Do you give them oyster shells?

 

[BethLeopard]

Yes, they have a supply always available.

Perhaps they're getting ready to molt, or maybe something's visiting their coop at night and is spooking them. The last time mine stopped laying, I had moved the waterer to a different place :/ The time before that, there were mice in the coop.
What I'm getting at is it really doesn't take much to upset them enough to cause them not to lay...
