I think my buff brahma bantam is probably laying and she 18 weeks old, however, she is from a hatchery if that makes a difference. Do you think it is unhealthy or unusual?
I was wondering at what age do buff brahma bantams generally lay? Do they lay at the same age as brahmas or do they lay earlier/later because they are bantams. Also would two buff brahma bantams of the same age start laying around the same time or could they lay some time apart.

Hello Everybody,
My entire flock used to get along there would be the occasional fights but nothing serious (they are 10 weeks old). Then one of my silkies (I think a hen?) got a very serious leg injury (cause unknown) and couldn't stand for 3 weeks now she is starting to recover and can walk...
Okay thank you. Also just an update she is still breathing very rapidly and quickly and keeps attempting to walk on the knee with no success and I am afraid she is only going to hurt herself more
Hello everybody,
I would greatly appreciate some help with my problem. I noticed one of my silkie chickens started limping very heavily and then could not walk at all and just sat down and would not get up, even when I came up to her and normally she runs away the minute she sees me. I...
