Alright, so.. Welcome to my roller coaster of raising chickens for the first time! I will repeat it again, I have 11 chicks in total. 1 EE, 1 EE Bantam, 1 Blue Cochin, 1 Australorp 1 Buff Orpington, 1 Barred Rock Bantam, 1 Sicillian Buttercup, and 4 RIRs. My chicks are doing good, so far. They're about 2 weeks old now.. So for the most part, everyone but a few are developing combs. Everyone is growing a tiny, or big amount... Except my Barred Rock Bantam. Depending on which chick you compare it to, its at least 2x smaller. Even my EE Bantam is a little bigger! I took my chicks out of the brooder today to play, and when I showed food, they all ate except for my BR Bantam!!! Now I'm concerned for its health, weather it will live or not.. Please help!
