20-25 weeks is a minimum age for egg laying to begin. Some mature faster, some mature slower, some birds don't lay until 30-34 weeks.....I know it's hard to wait so long, but it'll happen...

Some just take a little longer. They usually start laying on average right around 22 weeks. Your's is just a little slow. I imagine she'll be laying everyday in a couple of weeks.
