chick hatched with almost no down

This just happened to me! I can’t find anything on internet about it anywhere! Pics from hatch, about 3-4 days, and 6-7 days. Down starting to grow in but still far less than other chick. Pretty sure both are leghorn eggs fertilized by Americauna rooster.

I once worked with a woman whose family had a genetic defect, they were all unable to grow hair or nails. She wore wigs and false nails, but her sons didn't. It was a little strange looking, but you got used to it.
Please tell me you’ve got pictures
