I bought four free ranged Buff Oprington cross hens that were supposed to be four months old, and we waited an additional three months for them to lay. Either the person we bought them from was off on her dates, or Orps are just late layers! Either way, they've become very steady girls. They are pretty BIG hens, as well; maybe that plays into it also somehow?
Unless you have a flock of roos & just don't know it yet (
Your hens look healthy & are beautiful! Take some pics of your mini-eggs to share when they finally arrive!
Best of luck!
