Odd behavior in 4 week old chick...Please help!

I'm more than happy to watch her pin feathers, but what am I watching for? lol :eek:

LOL I would watch to see if pin feathers start coming in to cover that bare rump:lol:

She's on the last day of Corid, so tomorrow....I would put some poultry vitamins in her water for a couple of days and add some probiotics or yogurt to her routine (about 1tsp of yogurt a day for 3days).

I don't know much about EE's, but have "heard" they are slow to mature, some chicks seem to take forever then have a quick growth spurt. I have a very slow feathering line of BR this year - they are a month old and still have a lot of down, but seems like everyday I see new feathers emerging, these fellers still need heat:hmm Anyway, if your EE's are eating/drinking, active then just enjoy them, they will catch up.

Let us know how it goes with adding her back with the others.
