Hi and

Also, on top of 4-H chicken mom's suggestion, could they be hiding the eggs somewhere? We weren't aware our chickens were laying for ages, turned out they were stashing them under a bush somewhere.

Good luck!

Welcome, it's so nice to meet you! I'm from NC myself and this year started raising chickens and well... chicken math took over and the addiction began! I hope you enjoy it as much as I do here...I have met many wonderful friends and learned SOOOO much from many of the pros. Jump right on in, you will feel right at home in no time!

P.S. How long have you had them? I know many times when you first bring them home or move them, they may stop laying for a bit. Also are you sure they aren't molting?
