I got about 20 chicks by mail 3 weeks ago all same age all are the same size but one seemed to grow a lot faster my question is what breed is it or is it a baby turkey 3 weeks old and has fat legs not my first time with chickens but she seems oversized for 3weeks

That’s not a turkey, it looks like a broiler or Cornish to me; which would explain why it’s so big compared to the others.

In case you’re unaware, broilers or Cornish are meat chickens which is why they’re bred to grow so large so quickly.

That was my first impression as well
