Not getting eggs

[first time farmer]

Hey everyone I have not posted in a very long time as I have been so busy with work and school. But I have run into a problem. I got my new flock of layers back in march (march 15) If I can remember correctly chickens start laying around 20-25 weeks(please correct me if im wrong) I have a flock of 27 barred rocks and nh reds. I got the from mcmurry and I got the free rare chick which ended up being a hamberg rooster. So now to my problem. I am not getting eggs. I will get 1 or 2 a day when I should be getting much more. I am feeding 16 % layer feed. So what am I doing wrong. I have a theory that it might be because I have a rooster(my first) but I have no clue. I would really like advice on this as I would like to be getting eggs haha

Thanks

Not sure why they are not laying except that some pullets take longer than others to start laying. The summer heat could put them off on laying too! I do know that having or not having a roo has no effect on whether or not a hen lays.

Time to worm and do a parasite check for mites and lice... Read up on it... Possible molt??? Feathers everywhere.. Feel your birds...Are they heavy??? If not well something is eatin them Combs red??? (should be if they are laying)

Hidden nest. If they look like they should be laying. The red larger comb and appearance of wattle

I have checked most of those things but I will read more and check again. All my hens have large red combs
