What do you think? How long until the girls are laying?

[Tervuren]

I’m not in any rush, but I am excited! Based on the pics how long would you say I have until eggs?
I have a Bielefelder, Cream Legbar, Easter Egger, Australorp, and Silver Dorking. (Nettie, Fancy, Ada, Amelia, and Dora respectively) The girls hatched on April 6th, so they are 17 weeks and 3 days. The combs/wattles are getting redder and bigger, and I swear I heard one of them singing something that sounded awfully like an egg song yesterday. Nettie and Dora kind of crouch when I pet them, but they don’t stay in place for long.
I am aware that I don’t have the fastest maturing breeds, so I’m not expecting eggs that soon, but what can I say I’m excited! And it is fun to guess when the eggs are coming and who will lay first! My guess is Amelia the Australorp. What do you all think?

Getting close! Still probably a good month or more off for everyone except the last EE, she looks pretty young still. Look for squatting, more vocalizations and less peeping sounds, and a very bright red and plump comb.

Looks like they are probably 6 to 8 weeks away. I think six weeks.
