So my bantam went broody sometime in June. She had 5 little bantam eggs to sit on. We left her alone.
3 weeks later she was still on them so we candled the eggs and saw that they were duds. Not fertilized. Bantam rooster didn't do his job.
We took them away. She was back to her regular self 2 days later.
Fast forward... it is now October and she has yet to start laying again.
What gives?
 
Some bantams are seasonal layers. They only lay during times when it's appropriate to lay and raise chicks. Many are also good at hiding their eggs, so make sure she doesn't have a secret stash somewhere. What breed?
 
She's confined to a coop and run. So she can't stash her eggs.
I was told she was some sort of game breed. I'm thinking she must be a seasonal layer, as you say.
Here's her picture
