Chicks are hatched with down feathers. These are smaller and lack the barbules and hooklets of an adult chicken feather. These feathers are not zipped together and do not look neat and tidy. A chicks first covering is soft and fluffy. This provides most of the insulation needed to keep the chick warm. These first feathers last only for a week or so and are soon replaced by what will eventually be full adult feathering.
