How Many Eggs Did You Get Today?

[Chicken puzzled]

Am I doing something wrong. I have gone from average of 4-6 out of ten chooks down to 1 to 0 eggs a day. I feed them layong pellets, sunflower seed occasionally and lettuces everyday. Does the weather play a part as it's just changed from winter to summer. Can someone help me

Weather, stress and age can all play a big part in thier laying habits. I
But the biggest question would be what's the age for your flock and are any molting?

Half my flock is only 8 months, the other half is over 15 months or older. First years don't usually stop production but can slow down in winter. Older hens will usually take a break during thier molt as well as over winter

I not quite sure on age. Think thre quarters of flick are over 12 mths and I have a few just under 12 moths old. I haven't seen any sign of them moulting as of yet
