Hi All, I have 2 ugly sussex cross breed hens ( my son hates them) and 1 of them does not lay eggs? I feed them just those lay pellets is that enough? I am a bad mother (kids hate me) so maybe bad to the chooks too? any help much appreciated.

Welcome to the forum wave.gif
I've never heard of chickens that don't ever lay eggs. [smilie=a_doh.gif] how old are they?
