About
A chicken chick is a newly hatched domestic fowl small enough to sit comfortably in a human palm.
Male and female chicks hatch at nearly identical sizes, with differences between roosters and hens developing as they grow. A chick typically weighs about two-thirds of the weight of the fresh egg it hatched from. They experience rapid growth, often multiplying their body weight by forty times or more within just a few months to reach adult sizes of 4 to 8 pounds (1.8 to 3.6 kg). Chicks from smaller bantam breeds hatch even lighter, often weighing less than 1 ounce (0.03 kg).
From Wikipedia
The chicken is the domesticated form of the red junglefowl, originally native to Southeast Asia. It was first domesticated around 8,000 years ago and is one of the most common and widespread domesticated animals in the world.
