We have -25 degrees I don't know the temp but that is before windchill!!! We put moving blankets inside, a tarp and insulation outside of the coop hoping no one dies!!!!

This is my EE she is 6 months and 1/2 old when do you think she will start to lay?? She is mating but no squatting. I started to notice today how red her comb had gotten!! Do you guys know if she will start to lay soon or when approximately she will lay??!
