What is the name of the Chicken that is 8 mos. old before it lays?

[Whispering Winds]

I saw it on a thread here, but cannot remember what it was. . .they intriqued me and I mentioned them to my egg guy and he had never heard of them. They lay giganto eggs!! I would love to see a picture!!!

Uh...I think that chicken's name would be Dinner....

I dunno but if mine don`t lay soon I`m going to start thinking I have a whole flock of them.

Jersey Black Giants take that long I believe. I have 2 but they're only 16 weeks so i have a long way to go!

I've got one going on 9 months and no eggs. It's either an EE or a dud. My husband calls it a pet.

I had two brahma hens that didn't start laying until they were 9 1/2 months old, not all that unusual in a slow maturing breed.

We have a Black Australorp that is almost 28 weeks old and no eggs. She is our biggest chicken, too, and the other two that are the same age (GSL & EE) have been laying for 5-7 weeks. She just started doing the squat a couple of days ago so hopefully we'll see some eggs soon! We have three younger ones that are almost 21 weeks old that may beat her.
