Our black sex link/barnyard mix just started squatting. It was hard to find out because she is FAST and only squats when cornered.
This about the time the seller said she'd lay, but I'm not sure about their opinion because they always say that and sometimes its months later.
So, after their first squat, when will they lay?
In my experience its usually a couple of weeks but you might say differently or have other experiences with this breed. She's a lot heavier than before and her vent is a little pinker but there is no other egg laying traits, and she has not visited the eggbox.
We really want eggs because only 1 in 10 chickens lays and we hardly find them because they are always in a hedge somewhere!
This is her.
Her comb is a little bigger and much redder and she is a bit fatter now. The pic was taken approx. 2 months ago. In the second picture she is behind the other chicken. And she's yawning not screaming!
