When do Wyandottes generally start laying?

[wzis]

My 2 GLW now are more than 34 weeks old, but still haven't started to lay. Waiting ...

Oh no!!! I really thought you'd have good news. Are there combs and waddles red? Any squatting?

Where do you live? In the southern hemisphere by any chance? If it's winter where you are, it can delay onset of laying.

In Sydney, Australia. It's winter time here now.

Both combs are quite small, waddles of one GKW are not very red, another one waddles are still very small.

Mine are 11 weeks and was told I'm half way there. Boohoo!!! I want eggs

I have read that winter will not stop them starting to lay when they are ready. Guess you can't alway believe what you read. I was lucky that one of mine started a couple of weeks ago.

I live in Brisbane and it is the subtropics so I'm guessing it will not be too long. I'll let you know when they start laying. Wzis I hope yours lay soon.

Darmaqueen hmmm a few more weeks of torture ahead. It's slow time waiting on eggs.

Our six silver laced are about 20 weeks and no one is squatting. Their combs are getting really red. Eggs soon?

 

[Brissychick]

Akjody fingers crossed for you.
