Youngn's on layer?

[Henmaster5000]

I have 2 girls that are about 22 weeks and other about 18 weeks. I'm expecting a 1st Egg anytime now from my 2 girls and I was going to start them on layer next week. Would it be alright of my younger girls got bumped down to layer also? Hey are on grower now.

No, keep them on grower. Are these birds housed together? if so you can keep everyone on grower until the older ones lay.
Until they are ready to lay, extra calcium can be hard on the kidneys because not all is used...

At 18 weeks old, it will not hurt them to go on layer.

18 weeks is fine to be on layer feed
