Hen not laying

[Almosta Farm]

I have an Ameraucana hen who has stopped laying. She is one of six hens. The others are laying normally. When she started laying she laid an egg every other day for about 2 weeks, then stopped laying for about 6 weeks. She started laying again, an egg every other day for about 2 weeks and stopped again. It has been over a month since she laid the last egg. She acts totally normal except for not laying ... active, eating, drinking,etc. Any suggestions or idea of what might be causing this?

Maybe that's just her laying style? Maybe she's just not as productive as the others? If she's otherwise healthy and active and you're happy with the quality of feed theyre getting, I wouldn't worry about it. But I have several older hens so I don't even keep track any more. I have only one hen that lays a white egg and I hadn't seen one all winter long. Then this spring, ten in a row. Then nothing again so far. I figure that's just her way. Eats her rent in bugs though!

This is her first year, so maybe she's still trying to figure it all out!
