How Old are these Chickens??

[BigBuckSnort]

Any Guesses as to how old these are? The guy I bought them from said they could start laying any day now...

I'd guess around 5 months old. They should start laying soon, but definitely not "any day now."

When their faces start getting really red and their combs start growing as well as their wattles dropping, then you can be sure that eggs are getting closer!

Looks 4 months u have a month or better

 

[BigBuckSnort]

a week or two sounded better!

Mine look a little older than yours. I have the same breeds. Mine were hatched sometime in March and are not laying yet.

If their combs were red and/or swollen I would say a couple weeks.

Yea, I think your looking at a few more months before they start laying.

Sorry, Buck, but it will go quickly. Okay, that's a lie. It will seem like waiting for Christmas when you were 5.
