Stopped laying eggs!

[Henrybelle]

I have seven assorted hens and my rockstar layer a red sexlink who has laid an egg almost everyday since she came into lay almost a year ago has stopped laying she is otherwise still acting normal should I be concerned? It’s been almost a week since her last egg! Her food is the same she appears to be pest free the only thing I can think of is that maybe the heat is getting to her they have plenty shade and water though. Any thoughts? Thank you

Where are you located in the world? (state/country)

It's possible change in the weather has caused her to stop laying eggs. When you checked her for lice/mites, did you happen to notice if she is molting, has any bloat/swelling or fluid in the abdomen?

We’re in Northern California so it’s not terribly hot but we’ve had a little hot spell lately as for her belly I didn’t notice anything strange that was the first thing I checked to see if she felt eggbound she has now laid an egg yesterday and I spotted her checking out the boxes again this morning so fingers crossed!

Well, that's good! Sounds like she was taking a little break. I hope she continues to do o.k.
