I got my pullets in today from ideal and I gotta say these girls are tiny! Ill post some pics when i get home
 
Must be the year for that. I got 6 from strombergs. 2 are not black sex likns and the other four I swear are Banties compared to the red links I got with them. Will see what they turn out to be.
 
I got 3 and they are the same size as my Isa browns
 
Mine are 6wks now, and they seem smaller than my golden comets.
 
My chicks from a hatchery tend to be a little smaller in the beginning. But then they are without food and water for the first 2 to 3 days. My hatchlins get water as soon as they dry out, and then within 24 hours I offer food.

Though they can survive on the yolk, they do tend to grow those first few days considerably when they have food. Around 2 months I don't notice that much difference in size.
 
I have 4 one week old Black Sex Link chicks that are smaller than 4 one week old Gold Links. One of the Black Sex Links I have is the same size as the 4 three day old chicks except she has wing feathers. I am hoping she is just a late bloomer!
