   I have had my chickens for four days now and I have only had 1 egg per day. I have two hens and 1 rooster. I am unsure which hen is the laying hen (or perhaps they are taking turns laying?), but I have just assumed it was one hen. I am wondering if they will not lay as well due to the adjustment? Any tips on what I can do to get them to lay more or should I just sit back and be patient?

   Give them time to settle in. I'm a little surprised somebody is already laying, it's not uncommon for them to stop for a while due to the stress of moving to a new home.

   x2 They generally need a few weeks to get used to a new place and settle any. Change is stressful.
