Who are these guys?

[Ladobaze]

I posted in the newbie threat, but thought id post here as well. Any ideas on what these guys are? I was told they are 8 months old. I was also told they arent yet laying eggs. Is that normal and is there anything I can do to help that?

Barred Rock and White Leghorn. If they are 8 months old they "should" be laying. But winter can interfere with laying as well. Also transporting/ new home/ new noises/ new flock will interfere with laying.

Their hormones and length of daylight and stress level after the move can all impact egg laying. The only thing you can do is to make their move as smooth as possible. Make sure they have fresh food and clean water. If you can give them the same food they are used to at their current home it may help. Make sure they have a dark secluded place to lay when they are ready. It could take awhile before they lay, moving birds can really disrupt things. Even if you don't see an egg for another month I wouldn't worry too much.

Agree with above; barred rock and white leghorn pullets. Give it some time.
