I have a chick that I do not know the breed of that was sold to me as an easter egger. How come it does not seem like it has fully grown?

I have been giving it chick grower since July or August.

Do you know when it hatched? (Or when you got it, and how old it was then.)

Do you have other chicks the same age? Have they grown differently than that one?

Chickens do come in various sizes, and they grow at different rates. So you might be seeing something normal for this breed of chicken, or you might have something odd going on, but I don't know which.

Though I'll add that she looks like a New Hampshire.

Did you get it in August is that why you didn't start feeding it till then? How old is it?

Is this your only chicken? If not are the others growing differently?

They are all different breeds and I think that the other ones are all full grown.

Are they all the same age? Are the others combs and waddles bigger, I'm still not quite sure what you mean by "fully grown" the pullet pictured would only be 4-5 months correct?

I have a mixed flock, too. My smallest weighs just under 2 lbs. My largest weighs 9 lbs. Maybe she's just a smaller breed?
