Hey guys! I was just curious if you know what feathering a chick would have at one week of age... generally of course! I know many breeds are different! Also.. what age are most chicks the day they come in to the feed store?
 
Yes at a week old they have around a third of the end of their wings feathered in plus they are very active, but not yet able to fly/jump very high. I have a little chick right now who has already got little tail feather stubs at exactly 7 days old.
 
Thanks! These are pictures the day I picked them up.
