Ok so does anyone on here know what age americanas start laying?
My hatchery Americanas started laying about 5 months old. Mine are from McMurray and they lay a nice large blue egg. I bought them spring of last year. This thread is not used for discussing hatchery Americanas, they call them Easter Eggers on this site and they have their own thread:

My purebred Ameraucanas started laying around 6 months old. I have Lavender and Lav/Split (Black) Ameraucanas from John Blehm. They are laying a smaller greenish egg but they just started the beginning of this month. I have 4 Black Ameraucanas from Dak's eggs, looks like two boys and two girls - not laying age yet.
The hatchery birds are a mix so they contain leghorn blood and will lay more often and lay earlier. They are also skinnier and smaller than the Ameraucanas I have. Feather sexing works on them - but not on the Ameraucanas.
