Reds stopped laying

[LizTurner]

I have road island reds that have stopped laying. It has been 3 days since i have gotten any eggs. We normally get 4 a day. I know it should be at least 6 because i only have 6 reds. Any advice on what to do to get them laying again would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

They could be taking a break, they do that.
What are you feeding them?
Pictures of your set up will help?size of coop and run
How old are they?
Could they me molting?
Any stresses or changes lately?


Other will probably have other questions. Also even though you have 6 hens doesn’t guarantee that you will get 6 eggs each day. Some days yes others no. Just depends

They are about year old.
Feed is just normallaying pellets. Have been feeding them that for about 5 months.
How can i tell if they are molting?
They are in a space about 14x14. Have a branch that they roost on.it is not a closed coop. They do not like to be in a closed coop.i will get a picture for you.
