How long should I give her to lay?

Hello, I have a hen that got as a chick May 8, 2022..so she's less than a year old. she started laying sept 1st and laid consistently until about Oct. 20th. And nothing since. What is going on with her? Her nest mates are laying. How long should I give her before I get rid of her? I don't have the money/space for freeloaders. Any suggestions would be welcome. Thank you so much. ~Rachel

I would give her a couple more months. Some of mine have started back up and one dingbat started molting. They do things at their own pace

Give her some more time. This is part of their natural cycle, she'll start laying again
