Easiest way to stop edd production is reduce the protein in the feed - bingo, no eggs. Chickens require 16% protein in their feed to produce eggs. You replace that with very low protein and no eggs.
So I'm not worried about the low egg production from feed, I think it is directly related to decreased protein. That's why when chicken owners switched to a different brand, the hens started laying right away again.
Thankfully - I don't believe this is as bad as people are thinking. I don't think it is permanent or has damaged anything, just not enough protein and no eggs because of it.

Thanks for that insight.
But the timing of all this is highly suspect.
Waaayyy too many dots connecting these days ββ
Food production/packaging facilities destroyed/burned
Food production/packaging co's bought up by foreigners
Govt. culling of poultry farms
Govt. culling of pork farms
Farm land bought up by Sociopath-Gates
Fertilizer production facilities fires
Fertilizer co's bought up by foreigners
Energy production β© transportation cost crisis
that's the short list......

Yes, but we can't jump on every conspiracy bandwagon, especially when there is a very logical explanation for feed issue. I'm all for ferreting out the truth, but I'm also for sharing real truth and not ideas that can't be backed up by anything...
People are claiming there is something 'in the feed' but where is the proof? And if there is something in the feed preventing chickens from laying eggs - it is obviously short lived because as soon as the brand is changed the hens lay again. Nothing seriously wrong there - nothing stopping eggs forever, nothing killing hens, nothing causing anything but no eggs with that brand.
Free range chickens don't lay as many eggs because of the protein issue - sometimes they can't find enough protein to eat in a day, so no eggs. No different with the feed here, not enough protein and no eggs, same thing.
If you give a hen too much protein, it damages organs and kills them...thankfully that wasn't the case here. Just low protein.

If they wanted to truly stop egg production thru the chicken feed - increase the protein to a lethal level for hens and you have dead hens. By the time the nation figured it out, huge numbers of backyard chickens would be gone.
This didn't happen.
Instead, eggs stopped. Only explanation is not enough protein, it was probably under 10% protein for the hens to stop laying so suddenly like that. And when they were put back on 16%, people were stating the eggs started coming the next day. Protein deficiency...plain and simple.
Was it done on purpose to reduce the number of eggs out there? Who knows??? But cutting corners by decreasing protein while still charging the same amount...more logical.
Also, just plain chicken feed (not laying mash for chickens laying eggs), this is used to keep birds alive without the higher cost of the lay mash. Protein in that can range from 7-10%. It could be that was put in the laying mash bags instead, a simple mistake.
