Frizzle chicks at what age are you 100% sure?

[Elispepper22]

I have a late batch of chicks and a few of them look like they might be
Frizzles but I'm not familiar w hatching this type of chick. So I was
hopeing that someone could give me an idea they are about 7-10 days
old? Thanks I hope this is not a repeat question and if so if someone
Could lead me to the threads it would be greatly appreciated.

Hi and welcome to BYC from northern Michigan

You can tell pretty well once the feathers start growing out of the down - the frizzles have feathers that curl back instead of laying flat.

In post 12 on the next page I tried to explain it a little better about the difference in feathers.

from California, I've never had a frizzle but sounds like you got some good advise.
