Hens not laying

[Robbiejoe111]

I have had 6 hens for about 2 weeks not and they are not laying at all. I feed layer scratch and have a light on in the coop. Any ideas? They are Red Stars and White Leghorns.

If they were laying when they were given/sold to you then it is just stress. Are you sure they were laying? Chickens don't like changes.

Yes they were laying

Are you feeding them Layer or Scratch? I got a bit confused.

Fine layer, it's not pellets

I would put it to the stress of the move and that it is winter when every thing slows. If the lights aren't coming on and off the same time as where they were, that would also be an adjustment they would have to make.
