So I got new chickens 2 months ago.about 2 weeks later I discovered someone or several had coccodosis (not sure how to spell that). Treated that with the corid. In the water for a week. Everyone is looking good now. No weird poop. We do have a bit of molt going on and it's getting darker. I'm at 14 mature 1-2 yo hens. I got 2 eggs last week and none this week. They're on layena (purina) fruit and veg scraps occasionally, I've given yogurt a couple times and free range a few hours a day. What gives?!
 
Chickens generally hit their first big molt around 18 months of age. Combined with the days rapidly getting shorter it causes a significant drop in egg production. That could be your problem.
