What is wrong with my chick's feathers?

[Aneury Sanchez]

Can anyone tell me why my chick looks like this and neither of the parents carry naked neck or frizzle. Could this be an inbreeding problem as the father was in with a couple of older daughters ?

Chicks can look pretty scraggly when they first hatch. I think it just needs a few more hours to fluff up.

It is 5-6 days old and still looks the same maybe even more bald looking.

In that case, I have no idea
I had thought it was looked like it hatched very recently.

How does this chick look now? I'm curious to see how she/he turned out.

Sadly he passed away a week after the photo I guess he might have had some internal problems too.

That's sad to hear

But thank you for updating, rather than leaving the thread hanging forever
