i have a black sex link chick that’s a little over 4 weeks old, when we got her she was half the size of the others, we are currently trying to fix her bent toes that she has developed, and now she has bald spots. is there anything wrong with her? am i doing something wrong?

heres the chick
 
Black Sex Link chicks just tend to grow their feathers in patchy. I have two that looked the exact same when they were getting their feathers in, and i'd say they finally didn't look scruffy at 6 weeks.
 
she’s fine now. her bald spots grew back in, and she’s looking a lot better
I got a huge "barn yard mix" and have a chick about 4 weeks old that looks almost identical to yours. I had the same feather/balding issues too about last week and its grown back too.

Also glad to see what breed yours is because I had no clue on mine. Haha
