Have they shown any signs of laying? Squatting and visiting the nesting box?

The one closest to the camera looks to be at POL
The kind of peak their head into inbox but for the most part the one with the larger Waddles and comb tends to want to perch up high more often than the other one but both are pretty docile
 
Point of Lay. How do you know they are not laying?
I have an Easter egger that is laying and she has greenish bluish eggs I have a Australorp hen that lays smaller brown eggs they’re not small eggs but they’re not like extra large whereas I know that the Plymouth white rocks lay large to extra-large. Her eggs tend to be just a little bit smaller than my Easter Egger and then I have mill fleurdo d’uccles which they lay small eggs and all of which I’ve been consistent with laying eggs for the last year so I haven’t had any extra eggs added into the mix so I know they’re not laying yet
