I have a very small buff polish, Pixa, who is 2 months old. She is a bantam, but much smaller than the other chicks she was raised with, she would always complain, and get bumped or stepped on by the others. But I do see her eating all the time. Below her with the older chicks

I was to afraid to put her in the general coop population, so I moved her to a brooder with chicks one week old. I think she likes the energy of the little chicks, she stopped complaining, and I think she is having a great time, but they will probably out grow her pretty fast, but at least she will be loved.

I also have a tiny Polish, her brothers and the other chicks she was raised with are all double her size. She has found her place in the main coop though. Last night I found her in between the “grown ups” she’s super teeny compared to them but they all get along well. I hope your little one also finds her place 🙂
 
Could she be any cuter??? We also had better luck keeping Polish with much younger chicks, they’re so fragile 😩
