7 week olds, Molting or something else?

these are the first ones i have growing up. is it just me or are they scraggly? Or is it just a ugly molting since they are only 7 weeks old. ones my rooster and other pullet.

I don't see any obvious sign of molt but older chicks/teen birds are often "ugly" - kinda patchy in feather growth and awkward.

Nah it's just their age. They're pretty cute though. I thought my Faverolle was pretty darn ugly growing up but she came out fine.
