I read that some EEs can start laying as early as 17 weeks so I am getting anxious. Their combs and wattles have not started developing yet. Does that have to happen before they lay? So many questions!
The two little ones at the bottom are EE eggs - they just started laying! These are their second and third eggs each. One got it in the nest box, the other was on the ground behind the kiddie-pool-dust-bath! One of the EE girls has a nice red comb and wattles, but the other one doesn't. She has turned red in the face, but that's it! They are 19 and a half weeks!
