What is the youngest you have had a pullet

One of my golden buffs from Meyer Hatchery laid a great egg at 14 weeks, 1 day old.

The rest began laying at different times. All were laying by 25 weeks old which was an EE the others laid between 16 - 22 weeks old.
 
Amazing that there is such a wide range. I guess the sex-links were bred to start early and fast!

28 weeks is a LONG time to wait for an egg! Good thing they are so darn cute!

Do you have any roosters? My roosters go in the nest boxes all the time and throw out the bedding. I think I heard that they are trying to show the hens where they want the eggs laid.
