Is my chicken 8 weeks old? I’m suspecting she is a little older. Thanks.

She does look a little older. We can't know for sure what age she is though.
Where did you get her? When?

I got her from tractor supply. It probably takes some time to get the chicks there.

Could be eight weeks. Looks similar in size and feathering to mine that are 8 weeks

I got her on 2-21-22

She could be. My onyxes look lime that and theyre only 6 weeks

That would make it 9-10 weeks

Compare to my 8-week-olds here: https://www.backyardchickens.com/threads/my-firstfruits.1514301/post-25664463

Probably close -- within a week or two.

It's really impossible to pin down because different breeds and different individuals mature at different rates.
