Lorax Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 As the title says, our Columbine has stopped laying. She is very young (we got her at POL in September and she only started laying in January), she seems perfectly perky and well and she's not broody. I'm not bothered per se, but I don't want to miss anything that may be wrong with her. Any thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mollie333 Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 Has she got access to Grit? Mine tend to not lay if it's quite warm! I'd put all of them on a course of Flubenvet if they haven't been wormed within the last 3 to 4 months. Make sure theres a lot of fresh, clean water, and ensure they are eating enough Layers pellets or mash (whichever you have) restricting free range time may make them eat more pellets/mash. Good luck!

Chucky Mama Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 Great advise from Mollie. Dehydration & worms will both reduce laying. The only thing that I would add is to check her over for lice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
