fuzzy chick?

[paul d]

Hi I have 25 3 week old barred rocks. 24 are feathering out great. One is still really fuzzy except for it's wings. is this chick going to be ok? Is there something I can do to help it out? Thanks Paul D.

I would just make sure that it stays warm enough till it's feathered out. Our Light Brahma took much longer to feather out also. Turned out Phoebe was a rooster. I think I have read that males feather slower.

Usually roosters fealther out slower than females. If you got them form a hatchery, they usually send roosters as packing peanuts.
