14 month polish no eggs yet

[Jsnick]

Hi, I have a 14 month old Polish hen that has not laid an egg yet. She is very red, doesn't squat all the time and she has been in the nesting boxes every now and then. Is she really a late bloomer or is something maybe going on?

She might have a hidden nest. I found out one of mine had one and there was 14 chicks in it. Can you share a picture of her? Make sure it's a hen?

She definitely doesn’t have any hidden. I’ve seen her in the boxes and thought she was close but nothing

She is gorgeous. It is unusual as polish often are great layers. There's always a chance there's something internally wrong, and she may never lay. Hopefully she's just a late bloomer.

Thank you, I worried she was a rooster because it looked like she was getting spurs. But I read sometimes little nubs are common in some polish chickens. I pray she lays soon

I've had polish with smaller spurs. She is at least very pretty, so she has a purpose even if she doesn't lay.
