Pullet stopped laying

[Owain1]

Another Newby question. My Celestial Blue Sexlink (Elsa) started laying on 1/21 she was 6 months old. For two weeks she laid almost every day. Then about a week and a half ago I found a broken egg under the roost that I though was hers. Since then she hasn't laid another egg. All the other chickens are laying except our Silky who hasn't laid at all yet. Elsa's eggs are larger than the other brown egg layers so I can tell them apart. Elsa isn't giving any signs that she's sick. She runs around with the other hens and is just as enthusiastic as the rest when I throw scratch in the pen. I have watched them all and don't see any bullying going on with her. (the Silky is definitely the bottom of the pecking order). The coop is very secure so I don't think Raccoons stressing her. I feed them Organic food. I was still feeding them the starter when she stopped laying, but have switched to layer in the last week. I have oyster shells available at all times. Water is always available. I throw a few handfuls of scratch or meal worms every day and give them table scraps. Mainly vegetable ones. Any other Ideas on what's happening. Obviously we are only getting 11 hours sunlight, but the rest of the chickens are still laying. Thanks for any thoughts.

I wouldn't worry. They occasionally take breaks. Sometimes they have experienced stress you are unaware of. That will interrupt ovulation.
When you feed table scraps don't avoid meat and fish.
Layer is usually 16% protein. By only feeding treats of vegetables and scratch, you may be cutting the protein to a point that ovulation is affected.

Thanks, I'll keep looking out for her and add some protein to their snacks.
