The new 1 1/2 year old hen I got from daughter

Daughter said she was laying every other day. We have had her since Sunday and she has not layed. She will not even visit the nest box. Is it stress from the move?

Yes probably stress from the move

If she's in a new coop there might be things about it that worry her. Is the nesting box easy for her to get in? Is it too sunny? Too dark? Are there other hens bullying her? Is she all by herself and she used to be in a group? Have you changed feed? Is she drinking enough? As you can see, seemingly simple behavior can have many factors!
