I have a two year old Golden sexlink hen that has not produced a egg in over two months whats is wrong???

Is she molting? Did you change something? Have you checked for mites? Do you have other birds?

If her comb is bright red and she's eating and drinking I would just keep an eye on her for a bit.

If you can post a pic of her we might spot an issue.

I have 15 other birds who are fine and as far as I know nothing has changed she is not molting

If she's a hatchery bird she is might be at the end of her egg laying life. Or she might surprise you and begin to lay again in six months. Some of them do that.

I guess I'll keeper awhile I've had hear since she was three days old

Absolutely nothing wrong with that. I kept one until she died at 14. Many others were 8 years or older.

You'll find when those that are not too busy around here are the same way.

You might also check to make sure she hasn't built a secret nest somewhere. But yeah, some of the hybrids lay a massive amount of eggs at first, and then around 2-3 years old they quit laying.

I never think of that hidden nest thing. I don't know why.

Maybe you have nice birds who don't build secret nests everywhere 😂. I only know to mention it because sometimes mine want to shake things up and lay their eggs in a bush or the compost pile.

I did have one Hamburg hen who thought laying on the workbench was a fine place to lay. So, it's no like it never happened to me.
