I have a BLR Wyandotte chick about 4 weeks old. She is in with bantam cochin hatchlings and is only half the size of the 4 week old bantams. She is perky and eats and drinks well, but is feathering in slowly and doesn't seem to grow.

I also have 3 BLRW from the same hatch and they are twice the size of the bantam cochins and are typical teenage looking chicks. The little one still looks like a baby chick. Anything I can do? Maybe she is a bantam BLRW?

I have older BLRW who are humongous 3 month olds.
 
I would keep a good eye out on this chick... think about separating with a gentle buddy and add aviaCharge 2000 (available online from McMurry or Strombergs) which is an excellent complete
balanced daily supplement which is also approved for organic certified.
Offer daily live culture yogurt.
Cross your wings this will do the trick.
