Hey guys so my leghorn hens are now 20 weeks old and have yet to lay eggs should I be worried?
 
Are you sure they aren't laying them and hiding them from you? What are they being fed?
They are being fed layer feed with oyster shell in a separate dish and yes I am sure for I check every where they stay and I have yet to see a single egg from my seven hens.

They may just not be ready. Are you sure they're leghorns? Some breeds take a long time to lay eggs.

Post some pics of them, please.
Are you positive of their age, did you raise them from day old chicks?
Do you free range or are birds confined to coop and run?


No definitely not some chicken sometimes don’t start laying until a year old
Very, very few breeds, certainly not leghorns.

They are free range. I hand raised them and I am positive they are 20 weeks old.
