My chicks are growing wing feathers at a pretty outrageous rate, but the feathers seem very small given the adult size of a RIR, Barred Rock, etc.
Will the chicks grow in a full set of "baby" feathers, and then molt into a first set of "adult feathers?" How does this work? When should I except any molting events to occur? Should I give them special molting treats?
Thanks
