I got a mix of chicks on April 4th from Southern States. One was a GLW. I know for sure the other 6 were delivered on the Wednesday before so they were about 4-5 days old when we got them. The GLW was much smaller, so I assumed she was hatched later (the one lady said they had deliveries on Mondays but I'm not sure as that's the only person who said they were. The others said Wednesday's).
Anyone it's not April 15th and he other six are getting bigger and she is still pretty small. She has developed small wing feathers but nothing else yet while the others have lots coming in.
My question is-is she sick? Or are GLW just a slow growing breed? Assuming she is at least 11 days old but if delivered on the wens before she could be as old as 16 days old.
What should she look like at this age? I'm worried she isn't thriving
