Patridge bantam chicken poorly foot?

Evangeline doesn't lay. She has the finest wattle and combs of all our chickens, and was the first to attempt laying - a couple of softies way back in July. Honeysuckle and Scarlett are laying more or less as clockwork every day, but Evangeline doesnt lay anything. I just wondered how common this is? I know that cluckbok has Pecky, who doesn't lay, but what are the experiences of other omleteers?

My Iggy doesn't lay....very often. She came in June at 17 weeks and has a crop problem I think which slows her digestion or something - her comb has never grown and she doesn't crouch. She laid one or two back in July and we have had 1 a month since. I have tried all the usual things and I think if she lived on nothing but pellets might lay a bit more but we have 3 other layers so I would rather she was happy with them than laying. It's weird though, as I thought all chickens laid sooner or later...
