Runners aren’t laying anymore :(

Was there any traumatizing event in August that made them stop laying, like a predator attack or did you dare change from them beloved food brand to another one?
Ducks sometimes stop laying for no obvious reasons and then start-up the egg business again as if nothing has happened.
Agree with @DuckyDonna give them some more time, days are getting longer on the northern hemisphere (you are on the northern hemisphere?) and they should start laying again soon.
It is actually very healthy for them to stop laying during the Winter. Their little bodies need breaks from time to time, producing eggs is really hard work.

Yup, I sure wish my older girls would quit for a while. They've been going strong since last January!
 
No trauma. I haven’t seen a predator yet since first getting ducks in May.

I bet they are taking a break like you all said. Thank you! I just wasn’t sure and thought maybe something was wrong.
