My chicken is 10 months old, but still doesn't lay, is this normal?

How do you identify crop problems? Don't think she has any... She eats fills her crop and sometime later it's empty, fills it again and so on and so forward. They all free range, they are never locked up (except at night), they'll eat grass, clover, apples that fall from the trees, crickets, spiders, in general insects, I've seen some of them even eat frogs and mice, talked with people that have game birds also and they say it's normal (saw one of our chickens killing and eating a snake once too).

If you haven't noticed any odor near her beak she's okay. You'd hear gurgling sounds coming from her stomach too if she had it.These are the 2 most common signs you'd notice.She's very beautiful!

Ok, great, nope she doesn't have any odors of any kind or noises. That's great info to know, thanks! Her deposits are normal, her feathers as well. I think she eats ok... how can one tell if they are underweight?

And thanks, she is adorable, she's just so sociable and not at all skittish that everyone that meets her just likes her.
She grew up most of her chick life indoors because when mom hatched and left the nest she hadn't yet broken the egg shell, when I went to check she was still alive and that's when we helped her, we didn't have an incubator so she lived a great part of her "chick infancy" in our toaster oven, when she became more active we were lucky enough that mom recognized her and took her in (she was definitely smaller than the other 7, but that never stopped her from even stealing food from her siblings' beaks hehe). At the beginning she'd spend the day with mom (but would still run to us when she saw us) at night we'd put her back in the oven and would feed her in the middle of the night when she woke up and cried. Lol I have a very close relationship with her as you can see. That was her when she was a chick, we've laughed that she had long wings (even now she has longer wings than the rest of them).

BTW have any of you noticed what we have? We've seen that when a chick is born to a hen that looks different they'll develop characteristics that are more like the ones of the adopted mother. We've had dark chicks that are raised by white hens and they "tone down" their colors, or their eye color turns like the mother's.
This chicken did that, her other siblings and mother all had yellow eyes and she spent all that time with us and her eyes became brown/redish (we have brown eyed). I've noticed that a lot.
