She was my only one laying she started laying on Aug 5th (had got them all as pullets that were 16-18 weeks when got them on July 20th) up until today when my starlight green egger layed her first egg and did the egg song. My other pullet close to laying is a half Ameraucana/half cochin and hasn't started yet. My two French black copper marans won't lay for a couple months they are 3-4 months old.
First pic is the best I can get of the nesting boxes which have roost to stand on in front of them. The 2nd is roosting bar showing where eggs are found behind it in the hole. 3rd is the roosting bar from doorway when first got the coop into the location we placed it. I'm wanting to build a roosting ladder (though will be short cus the coops not that tall) I don't force any in the nesting box at night I have just had my daughter who can fit better place each hen in their after got nesting pads and then again when we put gold balls in their and they all leave as soon as placed in and go back out in the run. I figured it was needed to show them where they could lay by placing them in their but I dont force any I'm or hold them in there. I know some have been in them cus they poop on the pads but no eggs have been layed in them.
