Are they really the same age?

[Blayto012]

Hello, first time posting as I’m a new mom of 11 chicks. While I grew up with them, it’s been a minute. After several years of wanting them; 2 1/2 weeks ago I came home with some Easter Eggers, Sapphire Gems, a beautiful New Hamphire, and slme “Assorted” colored egg layers. I have them set up in two different makeshift brooders while we finish up their coop/pen and play area. In this “brooder” I have three Easter Eggers, with along what I believe to be a Barred Rock and a Cuckoo Maran, would anyone else agree? Also, is it normal for them to be so much bigger than all my other chicks- if they’re supposedly same age? Thanks for any comments. Apologize for the poor quality pictures, I tried.

This is my second “brooder.” I somehow forgot to mention my two beautiful silver laced Wyandotte along with the rest. So in case my question wasn’t clear; is it possible that the two bigger chicks in the first brooder are just older? Even though I was told otherwise. I guess I just feel bad because I feel like they need more space, and I’ve got about two more weeks before I have their future home already for them. Thoughts and suggestions are much appreciated.

They are most likely older.

Thank you. I know it may of been a dumb question, but they were all about the same size when I got them.

I wonder if maybe the assorted colored egg layers were a mislabeled bin of assorted bantams. That's a lot of size difference.
