I have 10 hens. I've been getting between 6 and 9 a day from them this spring until two days ago. I collected 3. Today I collected 2. They do not free range. I have a very large run for them and a hen house. There are really no places at all where they could be hiding them. I searched yesterday and again today. Nothing. What's the deal???
 
Could it be the weather causing this? We had a full week straight of rain. The last two days have been pretty nice, but unfortunately it looks like we'll get another week of rain.

That thread is about fall/winter egg production drop. This is still spring..........I have not checked for mites. I'd be surprised, because I use DE in their hen house.
 
happened to us about a month ago. turned out they had worms. we wormed them all and back to normal now. it was a huge drop in egg production and they did not behave differently at all but it was worms.
