does she look close to laying?

sorry the picture is sort of crappy since its a webcam but i think the comb shows she is since it flopped over overnight shes squatting how long do you think it will be before she lays her age is 23 weeks and 4 days and is a white leghorn. this is the best picture i have of her ive never had this breed before i would really like to put my egg sign up soon and the sooner i know the better thanks in advance

You could be getting pullet eggs any day. Or it could be another month. I got my first egg last saturday at 4 1/2 months. I've gotten one tiny egg since but i have 10 hens. This was about a month earlier than i had expected. Just be patient and the eggs will come. Good Luck

My birds start the fast-loud clucking about a week or two before they lay- this is a good sign. They also spend time inspecting the nest boxes.
