How old are the girls before they begin laying?. I have several that have taken up residence in the cubbies in the nest boxes....most likely practicing. They hatched 4/30 so are almost 5 months old.

betting it's a splash. unless you got lucky and a white bred a white it wouldnt be white. Pretty much the same on splash though, that would have to be blue to blue or blue to splash. But it has to be one or the other. I'm leaning toward splash on it for now.
could be. it's usually around 6 months before they can, but more often than not, unless they were early hatches, they just start the following spring. Being an April hatch, they could well lay a few for you though before the cold comes in a shuts them down.How old are the girls before they begin laying?.

hate to hear that Cole, good luckwell everyone ive decided to get rid of my chickens for the time being until june or july anyway
by that time i will be graduated and have a full time job and hopefully soon after that ill have my own place and get started with the chickens again
im making this decision only because i cant afford to put gas in the truck which gets probably 10-12 mpg and feed the birds at the same time with a part time job
i think this will be the best decison as i will have more money for the truck and birds wont starve so ill just be looking around but probably wont say anything as i will have no birds to talk about lol
bye all have a great night
Quote: Thanks Aubrey. We have been having some unseasonably warm weather lately and will into the next two weeks. So....maybe. They have all been running together until this week, when I pulled the pullets away from the boys and put them in the inside coop/run. Maybe I should set up some pairings just in case.....
