I Haven't received a egg yet

They are quite old enough for layer food, I reckon. If you are worried about too much calcium you can offer them some oystershell in a separate bowl. They'll help themselves to that as they need it. Chickens are very clever when it comes to regulating their nutrient intake. They'll eat as much of the oystershell as they need, no more and no less. I've seen this with my own hens. I feed them flock raiser with oystershell and grit in separate bowls. They eat some of the shell now and then, but not very often and not very much. They've just started laying over the last 2-3 weeks.
Some extra calcium in their diet and extra light in the mornings should get them going.

Yes, you are right about the darker red combs. A friend who's had chickens for years mentioned that about my girls' combs. Anything today?

Still no eggs and i'll have to hold off on taking pictures as it was raining all day and the girls hung out under their hen house. i'll post them when it's clear but the forecast calls for rain all weekend so it maybe a few days.also is it easy to post pictures here as i've never done it on this website?

It's quite simple. Have a look here:

i think there very nice looking chickens. But i dont think they lay a quickly as a leghorn are a sexlink chicken would. they will start soon by looking at there combs, just try not to push them to hard and as others have said, maybe a light would help, make sure its a incodecent light not a L.E.D

i thought I'd post a update as I'm so excited as i finally got eggs from my girls about 3 weeks after i added a light in their hen house. perhaps they had known they were going to lay soon and that's why they've been staying inside lately and not that they were cold as they were outside today all day and started coming outside Saturday(FYI we had a blizzard a lots of different storms the last 2-3weeks that gave us a lot of snow in central IN) and that's also the first day i received a egg from them


the brown eggs are from my GLW Miss Daisy and the green/blue eggs from Kanako my EE
Thanks again everyone for your advice as i really appreciated it
