All of my chicks were purchased at the same time in April. My Delaware was the largest, next the EE, and smallest was the Buff Cochin. The Delaware started laying the end of August, and the Cochin (still the smallest) a month ago. Still no squatting or bright red comb from the EE. Is she just a late bloomer? I cherish the other two, but I am excited for the colorful eggs.

Pretty girl! Neither of my OEs ever squatted, even now after a year. That's ok, just gimme eggs! Your's is looking kinda red in the face doncha think?

Your Delaware started pretty early! My EEs from last year started at:
23 weeks, 2 days
26 weeks, 1 day
30 weeks, 5 days. 

30 weeks!!!??? AAACKK!!! So my 21 week old EE may not even start until spring, huh? I don't add supplemental lighting.

There may be hope for a pastel egg this year.

Congratulations! I wish we had poultry at our county fair; only cattle (beef), cows (dairy), goats, sheep, and pigs.

Sweet! Nice egg collection.

I don't supplement light either. Makes it easier to pick breeding stock from.

Hopefully she's sooner than later.
If nothing else, she'll keep you in suspense??
