Why are tbey so small

[Yep I Talk To Chickens]

These guinea hens are 2 weeks apart. I got the colored ones as a gift 2 weeks after I bought the other ones. When I first got tbe younger ones I could already tell they were very small so I seperated them into a different area. They two colores of guineas are still not mixed. They are still so tiny! I can't figure out why. Any thing would be helpful. (Sorry if the pics are blurry they run away when I get close.)

Anyone?

How old are they? Mine did not look like they were full grown until they were about 6 months, even though they are mature around 4 months. Some were still smaller than others but they caught up.

7 weeks the bigger ones are 9 weeks

They have a ways to go before they are even mature.

Their life span is sig less than ours so their growth is sig faster. 2 wk diff between them is like a 10 yr diff between us in development.
