One fat chick, is there something wrong with it? Help?

One of the two RIR chicks I have seems really plump... Is it sick?

Sure looks healthy to me.

The other one's body is half that ones size... They hatched same time, one week ago today. It looks oddly larger than the other chick...

I wouldn't be concerned. Kind of like how one baby will be born at 5.5#, and his brother will weigh in at 9# at birth. Perhaps there's a gender difference. Roosters tend to be a bit bigger. Enjoy your chickies!
