Some of my hens are about 4.5 months old now and are starting to redden on their comb and wattles. Does this mean they will start laying soon?

in about 3-4 weeks. About a week after you have given up all hope of ever finding an egg and that threatened the soup pot many times.

Yay!!! My adult duck hens are trying to be broody so my egg counts have decreased drastically. I need my chicken hens to start laying soon! :)
