The tiniest chick

Here is a Mille Fleur Old English Bantam chick that hatched today. He is the tiniest one we have ever hatched. He weighed .5oz. We weighed the white Old English bantam chick and it weighed .9 oz. The Wyandotte bantam chick weighed 1.1oz.
Here is the chick compared to the Wyandotte chick. Twice the size.
Here he is campared to the White. It is hard to tell the size but his little body was about the size of a walnut. He kept trying to go under the Wyandotte, like it was his mother. He also kept jumping into my hand. I wish I could keep him with me all the time he is so cute.
