Well it's official. My Red SLs started laying at 18 weeks! My Easter Egger waited until 22 weeks. Boo @ her for that.

My youngest hens are 24 weeks and if you think I'm having a fit waiting for them to mature, you should see the rooster!

My three Red Stars all layed their first on the same day(!) at 18 weeks, and have rarely missed a day since. Yesterday morning it was -22C here in Colorado Springs but the Stars still had a beautiful, big, brown egg each. Love them Stars!

My Red Stars are 10 1/2 weeks old. So between 6 and 10 more weeks? Oh well...

Boo, the guy I bought my chicks from obviously didn't know when he told me mine would lay at 3 months. I'm impatient!! Cannot wait to get my first egg from my very own chicken!

Our Red Star- Patty just layed her first eggs at 15 1/2 weeks.

Wow, 15.5 seems young. Are they still pretty small? I don't know exactly how old mine are but I've had them about 3 months now and I was told they were a month.
