Hello all. I'm in New Orleans and have 9 hens in the backyard. Since nobody has laid in a about a month I'm considering calling it Malingering Acres. I've been lurking for a while and glad to have finally joined.

Welcome, Hayden, glad you decided to join BYC.

I have 50+ birds, and still buy store-bought eggs, so feel your pain.

Hello, and welcome to BYC. Given the shortening day light period it is common for older birds to take a break in their laying cycle.

Welcome @Hayden Goseek from a fellow New Orleanian, hope you will find BYC a great place to to find answers and have fun.
By the way, when one of my hens stops laying, my husband tells her she will be stew if she doesn't produce, it usually works.
I think the chickens may be smarter than we are.
