Welcome to BYC. Glad you decided to join our flock. X2 on drumstick diva's question. We frequently get new members who want to know why their hens aren't laying, and when they post pics of them on the site, it turns out that their "hens" are actually "roosters." If you want to post some pics of them, we can take a look at them for you. Other possible reasons your hens aren't laying include stress from a move or a predator in the area (even the family dog), illness or internal parasites, inadequate lighting (a far more common cause than temperature), something eating their eggs (including possible the hens themselves which should leave some shell evidence), or they may be laying their eggs in a hidden nest somewhere other than the nest boxes. Many times new members have thought that their hens weren't laying only to find the eggs in a hidden nest somewhere else (sometimes a good distance from the coop). You should do an evaluation of all these factors, and then please feel free to ask any questions you may have. We are here to help in any way we can. Good luck with your hens laying.
