Should I be worried about this gap in the wing feathers?

We're completely new to raising chickens. We have a mixed flock of 6 chicks that we got last weekend & I noticed that Darling (our Lavender Orpington) has a gap in her wing feathers. I don't know if one of the others plucked it out? We haven't seen any loose feathers lying around. Or could it be a sign of something wrong? If it's just a weird wing but she's healthy, that's fine. I just don't want to miss a sign that she has an infection or something.
She's 7 days old today - pics are 3 days old & 6 days old
