Please help me identify my chicks.

Way smaller than all the rest and they are all roughly the same age. I have a few Delaware pullets that are bigger than that one and they are a little over a week younger. I will try and take pictures to show his exact size compared to the rest and upload them after work.
 
This is approximately 3 weeks old because I have no idea when it was hatched but I know tsc gets chicks in on thursdays so I’m assuming hatched on or around the 5th of April.

These were the best I could get to really show sizing. They are the same age but I believe the other is either Black Austrlorp or Jersey Giant.

It’s been a month and I swear my mystery bantam still hasn’t gotten bigger. Anyone have any guesses on breed?

I did not notice the feathered feet earlier and the rose comb is more apparent now. I'm going to go with a Light Brahma bantam.

Side note- bantams grow very slowly so they seem to be the same size for ages.

That’s what threw me off as well because originally there were absolutely no feathers. They started coming in a couple weeks ago and now are very prominent. I have definitely noticed the slow growth rate! I didn’t originally even want any bantams but I absolutely love this one. Thank you for your response!
