Slow growing chick what to feed her?

[JRS]

No she ran with her big brothers and sisters and her best friend a disabled guinea. I had no other babies at the time but she did great. Never got bullied, I think she might have done a little bullying though! lol She always stuck to the guinea side i guess since he was smaller then the other lavender orps. Sadly when he passed away due to what i believe was a snake bite or spider bite she took up with her lavender orp roo that was 5 times larger then she but he took good care of her.

That’s so sad. If this one wasn’t being bullied I wouldn’t think about moving her. I’m not sure if she is a she or he. Maybe it’s a cockerel and that’s why only the three roosters mainly pick on her.

She's not going to grow any faster on other foods, provided you're giving her good food right now. Don't put her completely alone, chickens are social, but you could separate her from the roo who's bothering her.

There are three cockerels that pick on “her” most of the other chicks don’t even bother her.

They are on Purina non medicated chick start and they get baby cakes and flock blocks to keep them occupied. Fresh water everyday also. I kinda spoil my chickens

She is definitely a wheaten, maybe just a very small runt?

Thanks! I guess it’s a good possibility she will just be small forever or hopefully have a growth spurt soon
