Anymore?

my red sex links some started at 20 weeks some longer.

Red Star Sex links from cackle Hatchery - 16 weeks

My other heavy breed layers usually start around 23 - 24 weeks. I have had some that didn't lay until they were over 7 months old.

I believe a lot depends on weather and also when they were hatched.
