here are some more pics taken with flash from this morning when she sat on me. i am worried about the pink/red shown in the wattle... but you are right he/she has most of their back feathers already at 5 weeks
i got this SLW as a "pullet" from a hatchery, raised from day old chick to 5 weeks old today. i had always wanted a SLW but can only keep hens. this is the only SLW in the flock.
her comb area is redder than every other chick in the flock, but not quite bright red. and her wattles are pink...
