Hen taking a long time to lay?

I will be sure to do that. I forgot to answer that she has access to plenty of grit! Thank you @aart !

I went out and checked on my girl this morning and I could see that she pooped plenty over night. I did an abdomen check and it all felt good and her crop was empty! I took her out to the feeders to give her a chance to eat without the roosters bothering her, it's like running a gauntlet every morning for my poor hens! She still seems to have a good appetite! I just learned that some hens will go through a pre-broody stage and I'm hoping that's what's going on here. I will continue to keep a close eye on her! Thank you @aart for all of the advice on what to check and provide for her!
