We have had laying hens for years, and for some reason our 7 hens all decided to quit laying?
We had been picking up 4-6 eggs every day, throughout the winter and into spring. The hens are locked in a coop at night and let out year round to free range about two acres of wooded and with a house property. Not sure if they are hiding them, as I cannot find any eggs, but possibly?!
Or perhaps a critter coming in to take them? But, cannot find more than a random egg in one of the laying baskets on any one day over the last nearly two weeks?
3 hens are older, 4 are about one year. All have been fabulous layers, until all just NO Eggs?
It is warm, 50-70's and no feeding or any other changes
