We have a baby chick that is considerably smaller than the two it hatched with (probably half the size). It also is quite bald, especially on it's back. I didn't think much of it until today when I saw it standing with the other two. I also noticed that it's feathers are not really feathers but quite brittle. My first thought was that it could be a frazzle, but none of the parents she comes from are frizzles. She comes from cochins/silkie mixes- none of which are frizzles. We had one chicken a couple of years ago that I believe was a frazzle (we got her from hatching eggs ordered online so it's difficult to know) but that's it.
Has anyone seen this in their chicks?
