Chocolate Orpington?

They seem too fuzzy still to be 6 weeks (personal opinion based on my easter egger (slash) game bird varieties). My birds tend to have most of the fuzz worn off by 6 weeks of age.

I think so, too. None of our others were this fuzzy at this age, so I feel we were told incorrectly.

What brand is it? We were using something else and couldn’t be shipped this time.

I'm feeding flock party, 22% chick starter grower, right now. They don't have the 24% Dumor Chick starter/grower I usually get.
