Is this chick massive
Our take
Meet the towering chick that’s causing quite the cluck among its peers! At just two weeks old, this little giant stands head and shoulders above the rest of the flock. While the Silkies and Goldens of the same age are certainly adorable, this chick's impressive stature is raising eyebrows and sparking curiosity. Is it just a quirky growth spurt, or is there something more to this feathered phenomenon? Join the conversation and share your thoughts on this egg-citing little powerhouse!

- is this size difference normal?Ignore the sunbathing pullet. That's the mother hen and her three chicks she hatched 18-19 days ago. Two of the chicks are much larger and have much better developed feathers than the third one. Since we don't have roosters and are only currently walling up, neighbours' roosters must have been the one to fertilize the eggs. My mother says it's probably due to them having different fathers that they look so different but I just wanted to ask more knowledgeable people. We have a flock of 5 chickens currently: This mother hen and her chicks A laying chicken An older pullet The younger pullet seen in the video The younger pullet's cockerel brother (who you can also see limping for a second in the video, I don't know why he's limping but there's no scab on his foot and we originally quarantined him for three days but he seems to be better so we let him out today - he doesn't seem sick, just limping on one leg) submitted by /u/LopsidedScientist1 [link] [comments]
