We bought a mother and two babies about a month ago and didn't expect her to lay at all yet as they had been moved and she is looking after chicks. However, for the first few weeks of getting to our house she layed an egg every other day. However, for some reason she has suddenly stopped laying for the last two weeks. She looks generally healthy and we let them roam the garden a few times a day and feed them all on chick mash (soon moving onto layers mash). Anyone got any ideas why she might have stopped laying?
