My chicks that I got yesterday.

How old are chicks when they start getting their wing feathers? the two brown EE and the Sliver laced have some.

The fourth one down, what is that and does it have orange feet and legs? I have two chicks that I have been trying to ID that look very similar. Thanks!

A few days old!

Three weeks old!

The wing feathers start within a week, but expect the individual chicks to start at different times. All of my Partridge Rocks are the same age, some have lots of their adolescent feathers, some have few, one has just the wing feathers still all at three weeks.

Genuine Araucana's are tailless and have head tufts. See http://www.araucanasonline.com/ .
