Anyone else have chickens here?
I've got a Penedesenca that is not even 3 years old yet and she has not layed an egg all summer. She doesn't exhibit any of the usual signs such as broodiness, molting. So the only thing I can figure is stress - but what does a stressed chicken look like? And why is she the only one stressed?
Given that there is nothing obvious I don't know where to look for signs of stress.
I am considering giving her the ax.
