I have 6 pullets, 3 black sex links and 3 "amber stars." They are all about 15 weeks old. I thought I read some where that the sex links would start laying around 18 weeks old but now I can't find that. Anyone know for sure?
Also, I put up the nest boxes but never put in the floor on the boxes. The girls have been roosting on the dividers and the board along the back. When I put the bottom on the boxes and add the bedding I will add a few fake eggs but will it be OK if they keep roosting in there? I guess they feel more comfortable under the roof of the boxes.
Thanks,
Dave
