Today, I am buying eggs for the first time n several years. For weeks now, my chickens have not given me one egg, a challenge that I am eager to overcome. Is it because new chickens were introduced to the flock? Is there something wrong with the food? Could it be the changing weather even though this started before it was cold.? Are there too many pine wood shavings in the chicken house? Are the majority of my chickens too old now? Have the chickens become terrorized by the predators, coyotes raccoons possums local dogs etc. I have researched and believe at this point, there's nothing to do, but wait till spring and start over with all new hens. I will continue to try to find a reason for what is happening. Anyone have suggestions?
I don't know any of the answers the only thing I ask is it possible they chickens are hiding their eggs? I dunno I heard that once from someone. Hope you get it sorted. Sorry they aren't popping out eggs.
