Any idea on age of these buff orpington's?

[cshanpooh]

My husband picked up four buff orpington pullets for me. The breeder told him they were six weeks old.I thought they would be a lot bigger. They still have down feathers.

Do you think they really are six weeks old?

the look like they could be six weeks old to me...maybe 5, but i would trust the breeder...a six week old shouldn't be too much bigger than that, though some feather out later or sooner than others.

I would estimate their age at 5-6 weeks.

that seems about right.
