Welcome To BYC

Can you post more photos of this chick (all of her) along with the others and your brooder setup?
How warm is your brooder on the warm and cold side?

I don't see anything alarming in the photo at this time.
 
The brooder plate is fine on top, not hot. The bottom though does feel quite warm to me. Too hot to keep my fingers on there more than few seconds. The rest of them look ok.
