Hen laying eggs question...

[Mourningdove]

Hello everyone! I have a question regarding one of my hens...
She had stopped laying about early Nov. she has just come through her 1st laying cycle and seemed to molt. She is now spending time just sitting on a nest but no eggs yet, does her sitting around seem to indicate that she will resume egglaying soon? I know this may seem a dumb question but like so many here I am learning!

Are you sure she has not gone broody?

 

[Mourningdove]

not positive on that, but since she don't stay nonstop on the nest I wouldn't think she's broody

What are you feeding her? is she stressed? sometimes things like that could stop a hen from laying.
