This isn’t a question more just I’m really proud of myself and my little runt chick! My 5 chicks are 2 weeks old. We got them at 1 week from my son’s school hatch and I didn’t know anything about chickens. The teacher just told us the little one walked kinda funny but she was eating at drinking okay. A friend that knows chickens came over and told me what it was and splinted her leg. She did get tired way more easily than the other chicks and she’s about half their size. Her feathers also looked really pitiful compared to the others. It’s been a week and her splint fell off she’s walking great, has way more energy and her feathers look wonderful too. She seems like she is going to be just fine! Don’t mind my crazy hair I work nightshift and just woke up 😂 I’m just so proud of my sweet girl!

My sweet girl is now 7 weeks old she is still so tiny so I’m wondering if she is a dwarf or something. Her legs are a lot shorter than the rest of the flock. She seems to be doing just fine still though, we love her ❤️
