The chicks at 8 days old

Hello,

Here are some pics of the chicks at 8 days old:

They are growing so fast .. but one of the yellow one as some tiny wings compare to the others. We can see it on that picture, the one on the far left:

Is it anything to worry about ? They have crushed oyster shell in their food for calcium.

I don't know if that's a problem or not either. Why don't you send a PM to Stonehead because he's pretty well clued up on things like chooks, but he doesn't get a chance to look at every posting so he might not see this.
