My 4 month old laid an egg yesterday. Arent they suppose to not start laying until they are like 5 months though?

Every chicken is different, only the average is 5 months. Some lay sooner, some lay later, you just got lucky!

My Golden Sexlink laid her first egg on the day she turned four months. I was surprised and delighted to be the owner of such a sweet little precocious henny. . Here's to many, many more!
