Anyone have an idea how old these Rhode Island Red chicks are? I bought them 12 days ago from a local distributor who told me they were just a couple of days old. Given how quickly they have gone from peach fuzz to feathers, and how large they are, I'm thinking they are older than the seller said. It hardly matters, except I like to understand their age versus their development.

Our chicks, about three weeks old, with dog and cat. Cat is mostly just curious, dog likes to herd them.

How old are these Rhode Island Reds? I bought them from a local distributor 12 days ago and he said they were only a couple of days old. But they've gotten feathers and big quickly, and I now suspect they are older. Any ideas? It doesn't matter other than I'm looking to better match up age with development.
