I'm not sure if you can tell but on both wings there are 2 bare spots.
Is that normal? There's no blood or broken skin but curious if anyone knows what it is.
TIA

Yes, that's normal.

The chick is growing a little faster than the feathers are coming in so the baby down doesn't quite cover the situation anymore.

This is a 2-week-old Black Langshan with the slow-feather gene. See how naked he looks?

This is what he looks like now:

Out of my 6 baby chicks I have only one that still has bald spots where the early pin feathers are on thisimage.Is this possibly my roo? Or a feather malfunction? I just found this thread so I am guessing I found my answer.lol
