I'm a new chicken owner and while I did research before purchasing a couple of Easter Egger chickens this weekend, I still have questions about them.
The person I got them from says they're between 12-14 weeks and when I asked approximately when they would lay, she told me, "I don't know I've had some lay as late as 40 weeks." Among research, some have said 20-ish weeks. Can anyone please help give a timeline? Also, I'm finding answers saying this breed is broody and other answers saying that it isn't common. Which is usually the case?
I apologize if these questions seem so silly, but this is new to my family and me and having answers from experienced people would be nice!
Thank you
