Sorry the uploads and this old post's content have been removed to make room in my uploads page (wouldn't make since without pictures huh?) Thank you for all the replies!

Cute lil' itty-bitty! And definitely a lot smaller than the rest; feathering looks about the same age, so you may very well have a bantam there. At our feed store, I have sometimes seen them take a solitary chick that was "left over" when all of its sibs were bought, and put it in with another group of chicks of a different breed but same age. A lone chick tends to get depressed and cry a lot, so it's a gesture of kindness . . . but it can lead to some interesting surprises later on!

"Um . . . honey, this chick really needs to shave its legs?" (Actually happened--bunch of new chicks, one lone cochin and the rest bare-legged--my poor husband waiting for me to stop laughing and tell him what was so funny.)

That's a darling chick.

Shame on your feed store for deceptive advertising. Straight run is a mix of sexes, but if the sign says "egg layers", a lot of people are going to assume that means the chicks in the bin are going to lay eggs.

She looks like a rhode island red chick. Cute.

What a lil hunny!

I have a little one too and also LOVES to be held.
