At what age should i expect BJG to lay ?

[rebeccaH86]

My BJG just turned 5 months and is already squatting for me I'm wonder when is the average age they start laying?

I'm thinking she's not ready at all and just copying the bigs gals they're always squatting when I come into the run .

20 weeks is not too early.
She looks pretty red in the comb and squatting is often a sign that sh'es getting close.

Here's some other tips about how to tell....

Woohoo Shadow is laying , smallest egg out of the bunch so far lol but I'm sure that will improve all she gets used to laying .
