I bought 2 "sumatra" chicks from a local feed store. one looks identical to an astrolorp chick I bought from another feed store. The other always looked odd. It had a duckling shaped body and teeny tiny wings with only a few feathers. you could see its skin through its very fine down. The other chicks have fledged while this one is slowly getting feathers. It is colored like the sumatra/astroplorps but has a longish looking neck and longish legs and big feet. It's down is still kind of thinish. I will try to post pics, I just couldn't wait to ask if anyone knows what the heck is going on with this odd bird.
