Okay, so a few weeks ago one of my little Millie Fleur d'Uccles started laying again. She gave me about 5 eggs and then stopped again, I haven't gotten one from her for at least a week. Any ideas? The return of colder weather, maybe?

Start and stop, what's up with that?

That's quite common as pullets first start to lay. Their bodies need time to adjust, settle into a routine. (Similar to young girls starting their menstrual cycles.)
She'll start back up soon, then her eggs will get a bit larger and be regular.
