How big should four week old chicks be?

[Barbeque]

Mine still fit in the palm of my hand, with the exception of the only chick I know for sure isn't a bantam...

mine are 4 1/2 weeks old and they are getting pretty big.... I have one buff orpington that still fits in the palm of my hand and I'm not sure why she is so small....

arg then mine are 4 weeks also here I was saying 5 and 1/2 weeks old lol so mine were probably 1 week old when I got them.. and i had no clue, the stupid man at feed store kept saying 6 weeks but I knew that couldnt be so cause they didn't have all their feathers. I got them on April 25th . This picture was taken may 10th .

StormyMoon - Are you expecting yours to all be pullets? I am pretty sure the one in the front of the picture is a rooster. It's comb is very pink for the age.

Yea 3 are pullet and 1 is roo

What age do you think , this is confusing?

Also it only just turned that color within the last few days or so but yea he still lacks his adult feathers around his neck he looks kind of awkward.

They look around 6 weeks to me too

The barred rock chickens I have are almost the size of your chicken up in the picture but not quite that big
