lisaroo2 Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 ... and still no eggs! Maisie has now had nearly 4 months off from egg laying. She's in fine fettle and is eating and doing everything as normal. Nothing has changed in their routine or food and she's really beginning to baffle me as to why she isn't laying. I suppose I'm not that bothered by the lack of eggs, so long as she's ok, but it would be nice if she got back into the habit of laying again. Any suggestions Omleteers?

Egluntyne Posted October 3, 2009 Share Posted October 3, 2009 Have you wormed her? Is she laying eggs in a secret cache in the garden? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sarahsausage Posted October 3, 2009 Share Posted October 3, 2009 My girl Gladys stopped laying for about 4 months then started again regular as clockwork, maybe just wanted a rest? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lisaroo2 Posted October 3, 2009 Author Share Posted October 3, 2009 Hi All She was wormed recently. I think maybe that she is just a lazy Maisie, there's not much else I can do I suppose. I'll just have to wait for her to get hear act together again!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chickvic Posted October 3, 2009 Share Posted October 3, 2009 Hmm - you could be in for a long wait! Ruby had a mini moult last November and hasn't laid since No worms, lice, nothing! Her legs went really yellow again but her face furniture stayed really red. She has in fact just started to moult again so perhaps this time she may start laying again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
