Hi all,
I've just started keeping chickens and have 3 hybrids and one light sussex. We got them 2 weeks ago and the hybrids are really friendly. They've also started laying on average one a day.
The light sussex is lovely and very pretty, however is quite nervous and hasn't started laying yet. She's eating fine, is drinking and looks in great condition. No eggs though. I have noticed she does occasionally sleep in the nest box (no egg under her though). She's not out of the house last in the morning, but just appears very timid and nervous.
When should I be worried about her not laying?
Thanks all,
Nick.
