Thank you!6 months and on. Mine have laid between 6-8months but it’s not unusual for 10-12 months.
Thank you!!It all depend's on what breed that they are. Some breed's mature faster than other's, and that also include's the egg layer's, too!
WOW!! THANK YOU!!!!It definitely depends on the breed. Production hens can start laying as young as 16 weeks old. My silkies didn't start laying until 22 weeks. I raise mostly sex-links for production. I make sure the nests are ready and start looking for signs of lay coming on at 16 weeks.
