My 15 hens were laying 9-12 eggs a day for over a week not I get 3-5 eggs a day. It was a sudden drop - one day lots of eggs, the next day 3. The weird thing is that the weather has warmed up here and I expected there to be plenty of eggs. I haven't changed feed, there's nothing stressing them that I can tell. Not molting. Droppings seem pretty normal. Does anyone have advice?
 
Hens don't lay every day, so probably what happened is your hens just happened to take their "off" days at the same time. If their health is good, poop normal, and days getting longer, that's all I can figure happened. In a few days you should be collecting a lot of eggs again.
