Mine are doing the same. I have 2 broody buff orpingtons in the same nest. And once they went broody, my other hens seemed to stop laying as often.Is it normal for my flock to produce less once a hen goes broody? I went from 12 to about 7 as soon as one went broody on me. I was expecting she would stop laying as frequently but not the others.
