30 week (on Wed) Chocolate Orpington not laying

Need help. (Chocolate Orpingtons are a rare reverse sex-linked gene and develop more slowly than regular Orpingtons.)
My Chocolate Orpington is 30 weeks on Wednesday and still hasn't played an egg. Is this normal? When should I expect her to lay?
What do you mean "reverse" sex linked gene? It's the same as other sex linked gene.
Idk about chocolate Orps developing slower then other Orps.
The English type surely develop slower then hatchery type. I raised the English type and idk if any were laying at 30 weeks. They're slow to mature
 
Your pullet is maturing during the dark season, meaning there isn't enough daylight hours to trigger her laying hormones. Around mid-January you will probably see her first egg.
