No problem. I am sure you will see eggs very soon. Patience is hard to come by when you have already waited for the chicks to hatch, waited for them to be ready to go outside, and waited for them to get bigger.

You have also had some unusual weather where you are and that can delay things a bit.
I am clear up in Northern Colorado and my seasoned (old) layers have just finally started back up.

Usually when asked when will my chicken lay an egg I answer when she is good and ready.

My EIGHT TO TEN MONTH old Olive Egger just laid her first egg yesterday! Now she's laid two more since then. Look how pretty they are thouh; well worth the wait

The chicken in my avatar is a splash hamburg and did not lay a single egg until she was 11 months old.
She had it rough when she was very young (before I got her) and it set her back a long way. Even today at 4 years old she has never laid more than about 30 eggs in a single year. Poor thing.

These came from the same chicken?

@HOLWACHAGOT No, the pale egg came from my Orpington and the dark brown from my Wheaten Marans
