    Small Chicks, and other questions

    I'm no good with chick IDing...but I know this much: Different breeds can grow at alarmingly different rates! As long as everyone seems healthy and happy, my inclination would be to not sweat it! You have beautiful little chickies...congrats! And good luck with your breed ID mystery!
