2 Pullets, when can I expect eggs?

[milehigh_giraffe]

I have these two beautiful pullets. Not sure their exact ages, any guesses as to how old they may be? I believe Goldie is an Easter Egger and Red Stilts is a Golden Laced Wyandotte. They are both squatting when I approach them Goldie more than Red. Just an eager beaver here, too excitd for their eggs.

They'll start laying around 6 months. It's hard to age them, younger chickens have softer feet and bright red combs and wattles, older birds' feet are rough and don't have as much color in their face.

Hard to tell but they look to be around 5 to 5 1/2 months old. Usually their face will start getting red and you'll catch em checking out the nest boxes. After that should be in a 2 week window.

How long have you had them....and where did you get them?

Where in Colorado, looks like the metro area? I just got my very first egg, ever, today from my RIR. She is 19 weeks and a few days. Started checking out the nesting box about two weeks ago. Started squatting about four days ago. Heard a short version of the egg song two nights ago, and laid her first egg today.

I'm near the Golden/Arvada area. They squat but haven't shown much interest in the nesting boxes. I suppose I just need to be more patient with my ladies.

That's where I grew up. Sounds like they're close!

Your EE looks like my favorite EE. She started laying close to the 5 month mark.

Is this possibly my EE first egg? Or is it more likely to be from one of my already laying hens? Is this normal?
