Welcome. You know they are 19 weeks at least. You will find chickens have a mind of their own and do what they do in their own time

Welcome to BYC!
If you haven't done so, now is the time to put out oyster shell for calcium.
Just keep a container somewhere near the nesting boxes and they will eat it when they need it.
I'm sure you will get that 1st egg soon. Good luck with your flock!

I just put the oyster shells out for them today… most of them picked at it but didn’t seem to eat it.

I check my oyster shell containers every Monday. I never see them eating it and then suddenly it is gone. Lol.
Don't forget to get a picture of your first egg!
