What age do legbars start laying eggs?

[Hannah Jesenko]

my legbar hens are about 26 weeks and they still aren't laying eggs, they seem very interested in the nest boxes ( roosting on them, sleeping in them, spending long amounts of time in them, arranging the straw etc.) but no eggs yet is anyone having similar problems?

Hi and from Ohio. So glad to have you aboard. It should be any time now. If you are having hot, dry weather, it could delay them some.

Thanks for the advice, we do have really dry weather here. I guess I will just have to be patient
