17 weeks and a few days. For both the SFH’s and Pebble and Nyx. It’s a bit early tbh but they are almost all really quite red in the comb and the boys are more than a little interested. So, soon I think.
Soon maybe for the Sweedish Flower Hens. The silkies, maybe, but be prepared to wait until January or February for them. Poppet did me dirty and made me wait until she was 11 1/2 months old for her first egg. Her daughters on the other hand, between 6 and 7 months. I also think the time of year had a big part to play in her daughters laying early. They were just coming into laying age in January as the days were getting longer. Poppet hit 6 months in the fall so I know that was a big contributing factor. My 4 current grow-outs, I'm looking at next spring for them as well to start laying. I forget exactly how old they are, but I do know they will hit laying age around November. Poppet did the same and made me wait.17 weeks and a few days. For both the SFH’s and Pebble and Nyx.

Astrid is gorgeous!
Ha! Well, I also got three Bantam Calico Cochins so I have three baby chicks then?
Mine love leftover pasta it’s beaks down their favorite snack for sure. I never would have thought to give them that, so I have Mrs. BYBob and you to thank for that idea
Wha?? I missed a post or three. First adorable chicks and now eggs to hatch. The surprises keep coming from Canada
. I am thrilled for you 
can’t wait to see what hatches!!!
Yeah, I expect the SFH’s to lay first for sure. Probably around 20 weeks or so but you never know! Nyx I think may well wait till Spring with other chicks. Pebble will never lay any eggs, he is too busy crowing and being a silly teen boy pecking my shoes when I round them up to go back in
. He may be tiny but he doesn’t lack for nerve I tell ya.
