chicks supposed to be one week old?

[Cindy2020]

Just got these chicks and they said they are one week old?
The light brahmas are huge compared to the black silkies.
think they may have given me three week old Brahmas.
Anyone familiar with the breeds?

Brahmas is a large breed.
Silkie is a bantam.

x2, your Brahma is not a bantam. And does indeed look to be about a week old.

Thank you ....I am new to this and didn't realize how much of a size difference there would be.
They told me at the farm store that they would get along well? I hope this is true.
I have three Orpington hens 6 months old and they said they would all get along?

Large breeds tend to pick on Silkies due to their small size and diminished vision. Would recommend having a different area for the Silkies.

Agreed.
