What age do Silkies start laying?

It depends on the lines of your silkie. Many of the show quality or better quality birds won't lay till they are 7 if not 8 months old. Now I have pet quality hatchery stock... they lay between 5-6 months old.
I've heard more than one person say theirs began laying after nine months old.
The soonest one of mine laid was 5 1/2 months the latest was 11 months.
BUT ON AVERAGE BETWEEN 7/9 MONTHS.
