My girls were hatched August 29th. There's 2 Australorps, 2 Easter Eggers, and 3 Barred Rocks. They've got to be close. Most of them are squatting now.

How about your August hatched girls, are they laying yet? What's their breed and hatch date?

Not a great pic, but here they all are!

We purchased chicks from the farm store on August 20. The 2 hens that we still have from the original 4 just started laying in the last week or so. They’re a Speckled Sussex & a red hen (not sure of her breed). One has a very pretty dark brown egg, which are on the small side right now. The other has only laid about 4 or 5 miniature sized eggs so far.

I have 3 that hatched in the 1st week of September, 21 weeks now. 1 Barred Rock, 1 FBCM and this ^ mystery bird. They are reddening up in the face and all have about 2 finger with pin one separation. Vents are open and moist. No squatting just yet, but they HAVE to be close right?!
