My Easter eggers and one RIR turned 18 weeks last Thursday and I found an egg in the nest box! Then there was another one later in the day. On last Friday I found another, however, since then there has been nothing. It has been really hot here in Maryland this past week (100 degree days), but they have everything they need. They have been spending a lot of time underneath bushes in my garden and I have been checking there for eggs and see nothing. Last Sunday my rooster found a new home , could that be why?. Is it because it’s so hot? I’ve been giving them the layer feed and oyster shells and fresh water, and they are free to roam in the yard. I don’t know why they’ve stopped laying. Is it because they are still young? . Thanks for any help anyone can give!.
