Almost definitely a pullet!

Here she is now! Around 15-16 weeks old. Any guesses when we might get our first egg?

Any time now?

Any time now?

That’s what I’m hoping!

My 13 babies are 16 weeks tomorrow, and NONE of them have a comb/wattles that red! Their faces & combs only started reddening about 2 weeks ago, and most here say they should start laying around a month or so later...but I'm NOT in any way an eggspert.

She is the reddest of my bunch too! But I also haven’t seen her checking out the nest box or squatting so I think she may be a few weeks away. These are my first chickens though so . I’m still eagerly checking every day for an egg
