Problems, problems!

uh, when I got my Easter egger and olive egger, they were both the same size. Now they are WAY far away in growth. The Easter egger looks two weeks older than the other! Any of you ever owned olive eggers? Thanks!!

Both of those are mixes of different breeds, so it could be one is just a mix of bigger breeds. But maybe post photos if you're worried one is a cockerel? Or give more details if there's more to it.

Actually I am worried the Easter egger is.

Hmmm...it's too early to tell. But my buff orpington was way bigger and she is definitely a pullet. Just fat.

Maybe try mixing the chick food with water so its texture is like oatmeal. If the little chick is having a hard time eating enough, that would help her out. I got a runt australorp, and she benefitted from doing that.
