No eggs for two days now. A little research tells me that chickens don't molt until around 18 months of age, so the feathers are probably a result of the clucks sorting out their pecking order. This would stress them some, which would also account for the lack of eggs. The weather could be a factor, too. I was surprised that Mildred was laying in this cold, but with temperatures dipping back down into the 20's and teens, she may have decided that enough was enough for a while.
And I must remember that Mildred is still an amateur at this.
The cold snap will continue through another week, so this might be a good time to start on the backstory of how I came into possession of Ross chickens and related hobby farming things. Look for episode one in a day or so.
