    Any Idea what this is

    Well its been a few days and the chick still has this excess skin on its rear. Most of the fluid is gone now its just excess skin flap. chicks eating and drinking fine i assume it ill just grow into its extra body skin ?

    6 Chicks total from the 9 eggs. 5 roosters 1 hen. How the little female chick has not opened her eyes since hatching. She is walking around hobbling and cheerping every now and then , but she wont open her eyes. What could cause this ?
