Drooping wing

[EarlyRiser37]

Yeaterday my hubby noticed one of our chickens has a drooping wing. Its acting normal but today it's still droopy....

How old and is she growing out new blood feathers that may be too heavy?

About 8 1/2 weeks

Those wing feather look very long..are the other wing feathers on the other side just as long?
Is it really hot where she is?

Blood, or pin, feathers, are new feathers growing in...she's at about the right age to be gong thru a juvenile molt...so she may just be a bit uncomfortable.

I wouldn't worry too much as long as she's eating/drinking/pooping/moving around OK.
Maybe take a closer look when you get home, gently extend wing out to look for any obvious problem.

Not hot, rather cool I'm up in Maine. I'll look her over when I get home. She seems like the lowest in the pecking order but doesnt really get picked on, keeps by herself and stays out of the squabbles. When they go in the coop she tends to go in the corner before getting on roost with the others.
