I check my chicks today and one of them stretch their head forward for food and I see exposed skin and veins underneath Their is fluff and feathers over it but moves away from skin exposed area when stretched or spread out though they dont seem bothered by it at all. They are 2 weeks and 5 days old.

Chicks have thin fluff and skin, so often times the veins can be visible for a while until they feather out.

If she's eating/drinking/active, etc. then I would not worry too much.
she's active and eating. I just got worried since she was a lot smaller than our other blue and the other doesn't have the same issue.
