Not laying

[kendallb12]

That's somewhat normal behavior for a sex link at that age. They are starting to lay less, and some can quit at that age, but yours js probably so used to laying daily that they still go in the nestboxes. Usually if they look and act normal they are fine.

My experiences with sex links has been small and short. Mine quit before 2 years and never laid again. I have read a few posts of 3-4 year old sex links still laying, so it's possible she might resume after a bit. They do seem to need more protein in their diets because of how much they lay, so if you are feeding a layer ration she could be depleted, switching to a higher all flock or non medicated grower could give her a boost

I would look at her comb, if it's getting smaller and less red than she's going out of production, if it's still bright red and shiny she could be taking a break.
