5 week old chick not feathering out

[cabot]

My chicks are almost 5 weeks old and the columbian wyandotte is as large as most of the other chicks, very active , eats well and seems normal in all ways except that she is still covered in chick fuzz. She has very few feathers coming in and her chick fuzz is starting to look a little tatty..... She will fill in eventually.... right ?! She was bought from my pet chicken as a pullet ....

That's odd. I can't imagine why she isn't feathering out. Your other chicks look okay. Maybe someone else has an idea.

What do you feed them?

well, that's...different. I hope someone gives you a good answer.

I have one like that. He's a rooster!!!!!!!!! Looks pretty alien, but as far as I can tell there is nothing wrong with him. He's fat and big as the others, just still fuzzy
