hi we've got a few new hens and just wonder at what age they should start laying? I guess all breeds are different but just an idea would be good.

We got three 18 week old Black Stars a couple of weeks ago and they started to lay just 1 week after we had them!  Some of the eggs are still small and they are not all laying every day.

Last October we got three chickens from the same place (same breed and same age) and they took 6 weeks before they started to lay ...

Hope that you see an egg soon!
