When will my Barred Rock start laying

[BlueJuniper]

I have read that some chickens start laying at the age of 3 months. I know that barred rocks are excellent layers, and that they mature quickly.
We got chickens on the 20th of June. My barred rock has a dark pink/red comb.
I was just wondering when she might start laying?

Laying at 3 months old is incredibly rare. The average age for Barred Rocks to start laying is about 20 to 24 weeks. If your Barred Rock has a bright red comb, and is only 10 weeks old, it's probably a cockerel.

I keep Barred Plymouth Rocks.
They do not mature quickly, comparing them to other breeds.
Last year's pullets were 24-26 weeks old when they started to lay.

I have other breeds of pullets that started to lay pretty early at 15-16 weeks.
They are 20 weeks old now. Buff Orpingtons, White Leghorns (first to lay of course), Silver Laced Wyandottes and Dixie Rainbows.

Can you post a pic of your birds? Until we can see a full body view of them from the side, it's just a guess.

Looks just like the 5 pullets that I have in my coop. Mine were born 5-27-16. Just slightly smaller.
