    Just received my chicks. They are non stop drinking. Is this normal?

    My 12 chicks go through about a quart a day. Surprising to me, but they seem quite happy and very active.

    wing feather growth rate?

    Is it normal for the wing feathers of chicks of the same breed to grow at significantly different rates?
