Hello, this my first flock of chickens and I have a few questions. I have two Sapphire Gems, one that started laying about three weeks ago, she lays almost every day now. The other one is much larger and just started squatting yesterday. I have two RIR's and one laid one egg about a week ago and nothing since, and 2 Australorp both are squatting but no laying. They are all probably 19 almost 20 weeks now. We have a coop cam so I know who is laying, and no one besides the one Sapphire Gem has even gone into the nesting box. Is it normal that they don't go in and check them out until they will lay? The RIR plopped it in the middle of the coop And is it normal that the same breed would start laying a month apart?
