It is so strange because normally they only have 10 flight feathers on eather side but my olive egger has 14 on eather side, but 4 feathers on both sides look like a tiny little wing so strange .

Maybe you could post photos so we can see what you are describing. How old are these hens?

 

[exoticpoultry]

The hens are around nine months of age the have already started laying.
