If you have them outside just give them some artificial light to complete the 17 hours they would need to start laying! I have them outside and I have a light on them it goes on at 5 turns off at 8 goes back on at 7 and turns off again at 9 and well so far i got one of my hens to lay, and waiting for the rest to start.

you kina need to build up to the time the light is on you may not want to go from 12 hours a day to 17 in 2 days it seems like it takes the birds a week or two for the additional light to effect them
