Thanks tobin123.... Is the Barred Rock a rooster too? The only one crowing is the large white and brown one.. you see in that picture.. the other two that I have been told are roosters too have not crowed... I am so confused...I guess I will know soon enough

a close up of the b/r would help but it looks like a roo.the white with a little brownish red are the red sex link roos

My faverolle and 2 EE's all started laying around 20-21 weeks. My Delaware, Welsummer and Australorp have yet to start, and they're coming up on 23 weeks. I put my Delaware in the nest last night and had a little talk with her. I want some brown eggs!

I've only had 1 batch of chickens reach laying age so far. But they started at 22 weeks.
