That is correct, cmom. The primary wing feathers also come in sooner on females.

A question on the Standard of Perfection books. I saw one the 1900's online as a PDF. Is there any difference in wording from the original and the latest version as it pertains to RIR's?
It may not be anything more than the chicks trying to regulate body temperature. If they get too warm, they'll droop their wings and hold them away from their bodies. If you're using infrared bulb(s), try moving up a little. If it's too warm, chicks will spread out. Too cold, they huddle together.I'll be honest, I did notice it, but don't really know what I am doing with respect to standards. Maybe some of the breeders here will chime in. Maybe it's bad genetics, I'd be guessing at best.
