When do Silkies start laying?

[SundownWaterfowl]

I have some silkies and wonder when they will start to lay. When did your start laying?

I have had silkies start laying at 28 weeks! Regular little puffballs that are egg factories at a young age! I think they are born Broody too! I even had a rooster, Q-tip, raise a bunch of chicks who were not his own! He fell in the water tub, and I put him in with the week old chicks, he adopted them all! He is quite the "mother"! He's never laid an egg though!
