So, I have 12 chicks, 5 days old. We had a few with pasty butt and I've kept on it. Regular crumble always available, water with ACV always available. Temp in brooder has been perfect. Pine shavings with straw on top. Regular poops, normal activity. But I have one little brahma that has massively rapid breathing. She is also the only one to not be showing her wing feather tips. She was going nuts pulling and itching at her wings last night. I've seen her drink, eat and run... What's this chicks issue??? PS: She's typical size compared to others.

This is her. I can't seem to get the videos uploaded, but I will keep working on it.

It actually rocks her back and forth when she's standing. And her vent is moving in and out rapidly. But it looks clear.
What's the brooder temperature?

I looked again, & I think she just found the warmest spot, & it's just breathing differently to compensate for the warmer temp.
