A few questions about pullets laying eggs

[☆CocoTheChicken☆]

So today we got our first egg from one of our 20 week old pullets!I have a few questions though. How long after a pullet lays their first egg do they usually lay again? Also is there any way to tell who laid this egg? None of the others have laid yet so I'm wondering if there is anything that would be different about the one who laid it? We have a Golden Laced Wyandotte, Buff Orpington, Rhode Island Red, Australorp, Barred Rock, and Easter Egger. They are all 20 weeks old and will be 21 weeks in a few days. Thanks for your help!

Its probable her pelvic bones would be further apart than the others. Ill see if i can find a picture to explain thw location.

Lol don't mind the rock and plastic shell in the background of the first picture. We're using plastic Easter eggs to show them where to lay and I guess whoever laid the egg cracked it open when laying.

Below the vent you should be able to feel the pubis bones they spread apart more in chickens that are laying eggs.

Thank you! I've tried checking before but I have no idea what I'm looking for.

She'll lay again when she feels like it. It will be that way her entire life LOL. She may lay again tomorrow. It may be a few days. Chickens aren't concerned with our needs. They are selfish little freeloaders

Thanks for the picture, it helps a lot. I'll make sure to check them all when I can

I'm guessing it's the Wyandotte. Mine laid eggs with that kind of uniform speckly white pattern over the brown.
It may be a few days before she lays another.

Its the only hard thing below the skin in that area. Its pretty close to but definitely under the vent. On a non-laying chicken it would be hard to get one finger between those bones. On a laying chicken ive fit 2 fingers with space. About an inch wide.

Do they all squat for you yet? It is most likely one that squats and has a big red comb.
