Naturally egg laying has two section 1. Clutch(period during which the birds lay eggs continously) and a skip(during which they stop laying. However the length of skip should be shorter than clutch. Remember too that if the skip period is acompanied by stresser like poor feed or disturbance from normal routine, it might result into force molting during which the laying process stops untill the molting period is over.
