When should we see our first egg?

19 week old easter egger and she has been squatting and making lots of noise the past 2 weeks. Today was the first time I caught her in the boxes... When should we expect our first egg??

I think you should expect your first egg very soon! Any day now!
And yes, it may very well happen at 11:27 AM tomorrow.

The normal time for EEs is about 6 months but that's an average and they're mixed breeds so it could be pretty soon

Lol thank you! I'm sure it seems like a silly question but I'm a first time chicken mama and have no idea what to expect lol

My others aren't showing any signs of readiness yet!

Any day now, most likely.

Mine were all within a week or 10 days of squatting from 4 different breeds.

Messing in the nests is the sign that egg will appear soon, within days.

Any minute now! Well, EEs can be a bit slower but she’s squatting so be ready.
