Anyone Else Really Unimpressed With Their Leghorns?

How old are they, and what are you feeding them. Mine have generally averaged 5 or 6 eggs per week through their second year.

 

I'm new to the chicken thing but...

I bought 8 chickens at the same time. 2 white leghorns and 2 RSLs that were supposedly days old, also 2 BSLS and 2 of an indeterminate breed that were 1 week old.

One of my leghorns was the first to lay, at 14 weeks old. Oddly enough, one of each of the other breeds were the next to lay. At this point I have 5 hens laying. 1 leghorn, 1 BSL, 1 RSL, and both of the unknowns.

I don't know if it's impressive or not but one of my leghorns started laying early and often. Since she started laying at 14 weeks she's only takes 2 days off.

 

sounds pretty decent to me.

 

Are you sure their even leghorns?

There are other white chicken breeds who look VERY similar.....

 

I have 10 white leghorns and I am very pleased with their egg production.
My roo is also a white leghorn.

 

I think they were replying to the other person above them...
