Can that happen? I have a chick who has 2-3 feathers sticking out. I'm not worried really since their poop is fine, it's eating fine, playing ect all like normal. But it still has me curious.
 
It happens. Especially if the chick ranges from 4-6 weeks, it will often have an odd feather or four that will poke out or curl, depending on its diet and living conditions. (not saying they're bad though)

Ok cool. Yea I honestly cannot find anything that out of place so to speak. THey go outside once a day while I clean their brooder. Plenty of space in the brooder. Change food and water twice a day. They get yogurt occasionally and rolly pollies when they crawl into the brooder. I just can't figure it out.
Thanks!
