Hi all,
Well, after reading a LOT on here, I'm still stumped as to why my 2 girls have just stopped laying x 7 days now.
I have one broody who is out of the tractor and sitting with her new chicks, so I know what broody behaviour looks like, and the other two girls aren't acting abnormally.
They are healthy, not moulting and up until last week were pretty much laying daily. The last egg I saw was a soft shelled egg that had been broken open but not eaten. They are in a chicken tractor and not free ranged, so they can't hide any eggs. Last week, the weather was hot, low 90's, but they didn't seem to be uncomfortable and I made sure that they had lots of cool water and a frozen 2 liter in there with them.
They are on layer feed, with oyster shell free choice, with some treats, but not as much as they'd like,lol. Poops are normal for them, but just a bit loose since it's been so wet here and they haven't had as much grit.
I'm stumped. Anyone have any ideas??
