All my Wellie hens quit laying in November. My Rock crosses have started again, but not the Wellies.

Mine too. Everyone else is pulling their weight. I have checked for rat holes and put poison down outside the coop (covered so no accidents). I was beginning to think 'roast dinner' but if others are having the same problems, maybe I will hold off.
