Hen's stopped laying after 2 weeks.

My two white leghorn laid steady for two weeks, but haven't laid in five days. None of the info I've looked at explains it. Any ideas?

We'll need more info. to help you.
What are you feeding them?
How old are they?
Do they free range (and could possibly be hiding eggs)?
How hot is it where you are?
Any signs of illness or mites?

The more info. you can provide, the easier we can try to figure out what's going on for you.

I agree we need more information.

They are about 22 weeks old.

They eat layer crumbles from Agway as well as kitchen / garden scraps.

They live in a coop, but I put them in a mobile pen every other day.

We just added younger hens a few weeks ago, but they were laying then with no problems. There is a doghouse in the coop and I move it with them when I put them in the pen. They have only ever laid in the doghouse, even though I have built them a smaller laying box.

I just added oyster shell a few days ago.

It's been in the high 70s - low 80s for quite awhile now.

I don't have any suggestions to offer, so I'm giving you a bump.

They might still be laying but a predator is getting the eggs. Snakes maybe?
