In OKlahoma, we had some very low temps, so I brought the chickens into the garage. I made a 10 x 4 chicken pen for them, put shavings down, water and food.
I only have 3 left of my flock of six from the last year. I have two French black copper marans who just started laying. I am getting one egg about every day. The other chick is a black hen of unknown breed. She had been laying extra large eggs daily. now since I brought them into the garage, she stopped entirely. Its been about 5 days. Is she going to be egg-bound??
 
Chickens need regular access to out doors to lay. They need a good amount of real sunlight too. They should really have the entire day to be outside but if its too cold and your not in desperate need of eggs your hen is probably fine... I am surprised that the other two are still laying! LOL!
