Bought 4 new chickens the other day, 2 Japanese Bantams. Not sure what the other two are though, so, if anybody knows, I'd be grateful :) Also, my Japanese Bantams hatched out of the same clutch of eggs, but one is half the size of the other =/ Anything I can do to help her grow? She is so so so tiny :( I had to buy her the moment I saw her in the coop getting run over by all the others. Sorry the pictures aren't the greatest. And they are apparently all 9 or 10 weeks old










These two below are the same age, how can I help her grow???

 
I'm not an expert, but the first one looks like a Blue EE Bantam, 2nd I would guess maybe a Gold Sussex or Gold Brahma.

1st one maybe a blue andalusian
Not sure about the second one or the white one
The black on maybe a austrlorp??
 
I emailed the person I bought them from and his reply was;

The grey one is a Belgian Bantam and the buff one is a Buff Sussex Bantam. They are 9 or 10 weeks old.

So I guess thats that. Thank you for your replies :) although if anyone knows any foods/treats/tricks to help that little white one grow, I'd be greatful.

Also, the black one and the white one are Japanese Bantams, they're what I specifically traveled 80miles total for as you can't buy them in my area.
 
pics of them standing would help...does the lavender have feathered legs, theres at least 2-3 breeds that it could be? the comb on the sussex doesnt look straight is it straight??

The first one is a Self Blue Belgian Bearded d'Anvers (that's the full name).

The white one may just be smaller than the other one naturally. Make sure she is getting enough to eat and not being bullied.
 
She doesn't have fluffy legs. And the other ones comb is coming through straight, or at least I believe so :) thank you for your replies :)
 
Actually, it looks like its coming through, wide and flat, rather than straight and upright.
