Today my chicken is 30 weeks old...

[StarLover21]

Still no eggs.

She's a white leghorn too.

What should I do? I don't have electricity in the coop. Will she still lay? Or does she have some sort of problem?

 

[StarLover21]

Anybody?

hmm. do you have a picture of her . i have white leghorns too. mine all started laying at 17-20 weeks old. i dont have elctricity in my coop either. im getting 9-15 eggs a day from 18 that are laying.

I'll try to get a picture of her. She's very flighty.

My Buff Orpington FINALLY started laying for me THIS WEEK! ...and the ripe "young" age of 30 weeks. I think it's because it's winter... and her sister, a Buff Brahma, also 30 weeks, hasn't started. So, I think it can happen.

she looks healthy . what do u feed your hens what kind of grain.

We feed them purina layer crumble. I know it's normal for some chickens to start alot later, but everything I've read said their leghorns started from 16-20 weeks.
