One Out Of Four Isn't Laying

[Josh Clarke]

I have two Buffs and two Easter Eggers. I am getting 2 brown and 1 blue egg(s) everyday. One of my Easter Eggers isn't laying. All of them are about 24 weeks old. The three that are laying have been doing so for about 4 weeks. Should I be worried? Could one be egg bound? How do I tell?

24 weeks isn't a problem. Do they all 4 have red combs and waddles? If one is still pink, chances are that's the non layer. Buff what? Are you sure the buffs are both laying? I have one EE that lays a boring brown egg.

Yes, they all have red combs and waddles (although the Easter Eggers don't have very prominent waddles). The 2 Buffs are Buff Orpingtons and I am sure they are both laying. Once I got 2 blue eggs, but one was at the crack of dawn and one was right at sunset, so it could've been from the same chicken.

Never mind! I just went out to collect the eggs for the day and there were 2 brown and 2 blue eggs! I guess I should've waited a few hours before freaking out.
