I have 2 white mixed hens who are both laying almost every day (they are 24+ wks). My younger hen, a RIR, may be 19-20 wks, not laying yet. But she did an interesting thing. When I went out to get eggs and close them up this evening, the RIR was sitting on the other hen's eggs! Could this mean she is getting ready to lay?
