I guess its that time of the year, my 8 hen's factory shutdown, I have not seen an egg for the last 6 days. Are your chickens taking a vacation too?
 
everyone experiences this.. days are shorter.. they need 14-16hrs. of daylight for and egg! especially white egg layers like leghorns.. use a 60watt bulb on a cheap walmart xmas tree timer.. to turn it on at 2-3a and go off hour after sunup!.. if their molting LOL.. 60days to wait.. but winter they slow down normal!
