Some questions about my 7 16 week old pullets/hens

[Sam peoples]

I have 7 pullets/hens that are all 16 weeks old. I have 2 brown leghorns
1 white leghorn
1 black sex link
1 golden laced Wyandotte (supposed to be a black sex link but TSC messed up)
And 2 New Hampshire reds

Im about 90% sure one of my brown leghorns (first picture) laid her first egg today. I’ve been noticing her comb and waddles growing and getting red. Then this morning I found a broken egg that didn’t have a shell, just a membrane in the nesting box. I have heard that this is normal when pullets start laying eggs. When should her eggs be normal? I am very excited. Because she laid her first egg I switched the feed to layer pellets instead of chick starter.The other 6 haven’t started laying yet. Is this ok???
Also, do you think any of the other 6 will be laying soon?

I’m hoping for a nice white egg in one of my nesting boxes tomorrow morning

You might have a little while more for the rest of them in my newbie opinion. But it's super exciting! Definitely want to make sure they are getting enough calcium. First eggs can be wonky.

Thank you for your help! Definitely very exciting. It was amazing how fast the brown leghorns comb and wattles grew. I swear one day her comb and waddles were small and pale and a couple days later they were larger and red.

It doesn't usually take very long to get the system up and running.

It does happen almost overnight. I just had three eggs in 2 days from my roughly 18 week old girls. So I have three laying but only know who one is for sure because I happened to be in the run when she did it. Still waiting on one more. Was hoping to have one more egg today....but no such luck!

Yeah that’s what I’ve heard. I’ll keep you updated on her first… complete egg

Each pullet is different so for what it’s worth, I recently culled two GLW pullets at 17 wks (the terror twins but that’s another story) both had small yoke clusters and neither had very red combs.

hoping I don’t have to do that.

lol. my GLW were little terrorists, bullied so many flock mate, bloodied a few including my sweet cockerel so it was easy. Jerk chickens become jerked chicken
