I bought 12 chicks from tractor supply (ISA browns) the one chick has a bare bottom and is smaller than the rest. But she eats and drinks really well. Why is her bottom bare.

She probably had pasty butt, & the chunk of poop got torn off including her butt fluff.
It'll grow back.

Something ripped it off. Probably pasty butt. You'll see fluff again soon, most likely nothing else is wrong with her. Some chicks differ in size. I had a "runty" chick, and she is still the smallest to this day, but is one of the friendliest.
