We are a family of four plus 2 German Shepherds and a Siamese living in the Oakland hills. We started with 6 Wyendotts two years ago. One died likely egg bound given the size of the eggs it was laying. One got bit on the head by a skunk and then ostracized by the others until it ran off. We are down to 4. We like them a lot and love to watch them march around the property. When they started laying literally the day they should have, they started with a bang with one a day quite soon. We were giving away eggs left and right. Since last spring we have had virtually no eggs maybe 3 a week if we are lucky. No change in location or feed. They seem quite healthy and active. wondering what I might do to get them to lay again. They are 2 years old right now. Family wants to keep them but having trouble justifying the expense.
