I dont know what they are. Just popped up over the past couple days. I think the chick is a bantam mille flur. Got it from tsc about 6 weeks ago i think. Thanks.

I'm not very good at chicken anatomy. Hopefully someone who knows feather type names will come along soon.

They appear to be early juvenile tail feathers, the pullets usually get them first. The second molt replaces them with better looking feathers, as does the third molt.
