Extra small chick?

[Kraemer7]

Hi! I have what’s seems like a perfectly healthy- eating, drinking, pooping, moving around- just really small chick. She is either a speckled Sussex or cream legbar- can’t tell yet! She’s 2 weeks old and still much smaller than the others I got the same day.

Sounds like she's doing great! Good luck!

Ok! Great! She’s the small one on the right. I think a legbar? She’s the same age as all the others and about a week younger than the big one on the feeder. Just a small bird?

You are sure she's not a bantam?

She sure is tiny. Very cute, though.

It crossed my mind too- the place we got them from didn’t have any bantams available, but I’m not sure exactly where they get their chicks from. It’s a local independent feed store. The other one that is the same breed is also small but not quite that small. I guess only time will tell?

Very cute! Doesn’t so much matter since she seems healthy, but just curious!

I had a LO that stayed super tiny too, little bugger ended up being a roo. But always acted very healthy and no signs of FTT aside from size
