When to expect eggs ?

[Chickiechick]

Well the button clan has had some 'growlers' for about 10 days or so .
They are 5 1/2 to 6 weeks old.
Yesterday was the big upheaval day and a few select males got to be seperated and have their own girls

.
The remaining boys are in the 'bachelor' pen for observation that I've sexed them correctly before they are re-homed.
The selected boys seem quite happy with my choices of girls for them and so I'm wondering approximately when I *might* see some eggs.

I don' t have buttons but with corturnix you might get an egg anywhere from 6-8 weeks if the conditions are right.

My buttons tend to lay at 8 weeks old

Mine (which I assume are the parents of the ones in question?) started laying between 8 and 10 weeks.

Yep, they are from your eggs.
I *think* the white we talked about is a hen. She's with golden pearl hen and a cinnamon red breasted roo.
