When should we see our first egg?

[Liz Birdlover]

I have a flock with EEs, Buff Orpington, RIR, Marans & Wyandottes, and egg laying started between 4 & 5 mos. of age. It's very eggsciting!

My Starlight Green Eggers laid at 15 weeks. They were the first to lay and I wasn't expecting it so soon.

I looked back on my Leghorns have been the easiest chickens , thread, and finally found this from my flock that is 3yr old.
I have one of them left now and she is still laying eggs, 4 a week.



I also found this -- sometimes it takes longer for some than others



And I see I posted on Nov. 9th 2018 all 6 hens were laying eggs

What a beautiful little green egg! They will get bigger with time. Congratulations!

What gorgeous shade of green! Don’t be surprised if you find yourself hesitant about cracking it open to cook and eat it. They look so pretty you just want to save them like jewels.
