Not laying but walking around in the day

[Firsttimechicksxxx]

Hiya, I have a fairly new layer (3 months??) and I have noticed that after the past few days she has been sitting in the nesting box in the morning and evenings, with no egg being laid, but walking around midday just fine. What could the reason for this be?

She'd been laying for 3 months?

Yes! (I have just gone out to check her and she has laid an egg but will not move off it, interested to see what she does tomorrow.)

Are you positive it's her egg?
I assume you have other chickens too.
Is she spending the night in the nest or on the roost?
