Where should I look for the egg stash...???

[Jmash]

My free range Whiting True Blue “stopped” laying for four days this week. Kept the chickens in the coop, and -Bam- the blue eggs are back.

So... where the heck has she been laying these things. I’ve checked everywhere I can think of.

What kinds of places should I be searching??

You could let them back out to free range and then don't let them see that you are watching to see where she head's off to.

Anywhere a hen can go. Buckets, behind tools (shovels come to mind), behind boxes, etc. If she's trying to prepare a clutch, you can reasonably expect it to be semi-dark, out of the way and somewhere dry.

If you have the time, keep her confined and watch until she gets 'frantic' to get out....then let her out and follow her(discretely).
Otherwise......
Free range birds sometimes need to be 'trained'(or re-trained) to lay in the coop nests, especially new layers. Leaving them locked in the coop for a week or so can help 'home' them to lay in the coop nests. Fake eggs/golf balls in the nests can help 'show' them were to lay. They can be confined to coop and maybe run 24/7 for a few days to a week, provided you have adequate space and ventilation, or confine them at least until mid to late afternoon. You help them create a new habit and they will usually stick with it. ..at least for a good while, then repeat as necessary.
