My hens were bought in the beginning of February at TSC and I'm wondering when they should start laying?
 
My first flock I got in Feb and all (BR / EE) started laying within the same week after they turned 5 months. These were Rural King / Townline Hatchery.
 
Keep in mind,it also depends on how "well" you keep the birds.Pullets need access to fresh,clean water (Clean water can't Really be counted),and need access to feed ALL the time.Feed them right.

What breed are they?
High production breeds a can start as early as 16-18 weeks.
Most others 18-24 weeks.
Some breeds can take much longer.
