2 out of 7 baby chicks (5 days old, according to farm) have wings that are sticking out?

I have 2 baby chicks that have kind of wonky wings, both about 5 days old. They’re not laying flat when relaxed even after I try to help them lay them down in the correct position. They’ve just started getting their feathers in, do I wait until they get more feathered to try to deem this as a problem or should I get ahead of it now and do preventative care?
First timer here so I’m not sure if waiting or action is the best choice at a young age, if more photos are needed for a better diagnosis let me know and I can provide. One chick is an Azure egger while the other is a double silver lace barnevelder.

It’s hard to tell in the pics, but I think what you’re seeing is normal feather development. What breed are the chicks?

My latest hatch of 5 had 1 chick, Splinter, who at 4 days had longer wings than the others- which I’ve seen happen before- but then it became so pronounced I did get a little concerned. But then she grew into her wings in a couple days and was fine. This pic- sorry I don’t have a better one- shows her slightly longer wing feathers at 4 days. I wish I’d taken a pic of her around day 8 when she was really awkward looking. But she’s 3 weeks old now and looks perfectly normal. She’s a mix but is mostly Orpington. Some breeds grow their feathers in at different times, so that might play a role.

Thank you for the info!!
The ones pictured is an Azure egger and a double silver lace barnevelder I will wait a couple more days to see how they grow in and if no changes I will update the post and photos!

Yup, looks normal to me. I don’t think you have anything to be worried about.

Please turn off red light for any photos, it's impossible to see details.

Feathers growing in can often look weird or wonky. Split wing is a thing but you probably can't confirm that unless the problem is still present when they're older and feathered in.
