So I have 5 hens in total. 3 teenager hens who are not yet laying and I added to this group two older hens they are around 2 years old. One is a silver wyandotte and the other is a golden wyandotte. The golden lays an egg every other day but the silver has not layed a single egg yet. I have had theses two hens for 10 days.
 
I wouldn't worry too much. Hens might not lay every day and their bodies do need breaks. Your hen could be under stess since she is in a new place. My chickens always take a break in the middle of winter when it's really cold, or when they molt. Whatever the reason I would just try to be patient. Good luck. :thumbsup

Okay, so perfectly normal. That was my main concern. Thanks.
