Now is not the time....

I have a million things going on right now with my new house and property, and now my ladies are adding to it, smdh! Currently treating my WTB Betty for bumblefoot, which is going pretty darn good I might say, she's a great patient! Then my OE Prue decides she just going to stop laying. I've checked her out from top to bottom...no mites, lice, injuries, discharge, just nothing out of the ordinary. Bright red comb and waddles, eating, drinking, all the normal business, but no eggs for 3 weeks. She a little over 6 months old, started laying just shy of 18 weeks and was killing it, then she just stopped. Any input would be greatly appreciated

Probably taking a break.
If she's acting totally normal, then give her some time.

Funny you mention this. My 6 month old OE did this last year at this time. She had a small molt, and started laying again. I don’t remember how long her egg laying break was, but she is very health and just fine. I hope this helps you.
