I just got 4 English Orpingtons. They are 2 weeks old and One is already starting to fly and 2 of them are kinda taller. Does this mean anything?? The breeder checked them by their wings and their vent (something about a lip on the vent). Can some one help me out. I can post pictures throughout. Also is it common for them to have bad balance? One stumbles a lot. AND can they have treats..... one ate a worm. The yellow one with black wings started to try to fly today.

Treats shouldn't hurt them at this age as long as they are chicken-safe and they have access to chick grit. Size/development differences don't mean much either because you have different varieties and they'll have differences from each other. The stumbling seems odd. Is everything else about the chick okay?
Yes she is hungry and drinking and sleeps with the others.
