I am a relatively new chicken owner. I have had my 7 girls since they were a day old and all has been going well. I have five sex-links who are now 29 weeks old, one EasterEgger and one Bielefelder, each of whom are 28 weeks old. The girls have a large protected run and have access during the day hours to a much larger fenced area. They free feed and are also supplemented with organic greens from my garden or from our household discards. They all seem very healthy…. BUT of the seven I still get only six eggs maximum on any given day. Because they lay before I get down to them in the morning, I have no idea which one is not laying yet. Is it possible that she is this late, or is something wrong? On top of this and more distressing, one of the girls has begun to lay from the roosting bar in the dark hours of the morning; sometimes, but not always, leaving me to find a broken egg. And now another copying her by laying on the floor, too. This after a few weeks of the first doing it. They have plenty of nesting boxes. One larger one that is built into the custom coop, and two smaller separate ones that I added when they did not seem to like that one – though the builder insisted that they would. Only the little EasterEgger uses the big box where she leaves her tiny blue/white egg every day. So, I know she is not the culprit. All the other girls lay in one of the small 12” x 12”, DYI boxes that I added. How do I determine who is not yet laying. What might be the reason? And does anyone have an idea of how to break this new and awful habit of laying on the floor under the roosting bar? I am truly at a loss. (Oh, I added a camera, but the inferred light so I can see them in the dark hours, makes all the hens look identical, so even if I was to catch something in progress, I would be none the wiser.) Please help. THANK YOU
