I have 6 hens and it seems they all started molting at the same time and at the same time, stopped laying. This started mid December and I think the molt is over now - not many feathers to clean up. I live in the SF bay area and the temperatures are mild, with the nights getting into the 40's.
We haven't had an egg since mid December and I'm wondering how long it takes for the hormones to kick back in and they start earning their keep again!
