Lt. Brahma chick wing feather growth

[Buddys mom]

Hi, I haveve two 22 day light Brahmas that have these little "wings" that look separate from their wings themselves. I'm just wondering what their purpose is. I don't see any on my EEs of the same age.

It’s just that some of the wing feathers are growing faster than the others. My leghorn chicks looked the same way when they were growing. In a few weeks the entire wing will be filled in and there will be no noticeable difference.
