My two younger girls (Wyandotte and EE) will hit 18-22 weeks around the beginning of November, is this likely to delay their egg laying?

I have had young pullets start laying in Nov. and Dec. when I was told they may not...lol....and they laid just fine all thru the winter months...
 
I found that the first winter, my first year layers were the best layers.
After that, they start getting attitude and deciding to take the winter off and just keep warm and look pathetic so they get more treats. They let the younger generation lay more of the eggs in the cold months.
