egg laying?

How soon do they start laying? My chicks should be about 4 weeks or so (depending on how old they were when TSC got them). I tossed two boxes in there with wood shavings (which is what they have in there cage) and tossed in a box of sand. Lately I have one chicken who lays in the box, and only leaves it to eat, and drink (And sit on me, peck at me and poop on me). I was just currios why she does this. Also what the heck does it mean when a chick INSISTS on perching on the edge of the feeder. she sits right on top and glares down at everyone else.

I'm not an expert, but from what I have heard they don't start laying until about 5-6 months ish? Soooo long to wait, a bummer for those of us with 3-4 week olds haha. But until then...enjoying watching them grow
