you've probably already checked, but I thought I'd ask anyway - might she have lice? I know it made my hens really uncomfortable and they stopped laying - I couldn't understand why and when I found out, it was easy enough to deal with. Might be worth giving them a dusting of louse powder jsut in case?

How's the weather where you are? It's cold and damp up here, I've found that when my hens lay, it's usually when it's dry outside.
