3 week old chick deformed?

[Beanso]

Hello

Ive only just noticed now that my 3 week old chick that was incubated by myself is not normal.

She has all her organs or a growth under her poop hole. I cant feel a crop under her neck.

Is it possible that all her internal organs are at her rear end? Will she live? She is happy and healthy appearance and behaviour wise.

Can you post a few pictures of her and the growth?

Yes, if you can post pictures, it would really help.

So she does have a crop where it should be. Just wasnt very full last i checked. But here are some photos

Has she been sitting in an odd position? because it looks like that she is putting too much pressure under the crop of the neck which would force the organs to grow in an odd way... I am not really sure but that's just my thoughts. it could be different

hmmmmm then Im not sure what this could be. the more experienced chicken people are going to have to look at it.

Well,in my opinion if she's happy then leave her be. However, be aware the more she grows she is more apt to develop more issues. Good luck with her. I hope she makes it an it will be interesting to see how things work out for her.

I would take an educated guess at a hernia but it looks a bit discoloured too and may be an infection brewing in there. I don't think the prognosis is good but all you can do is keep an eye on her and be prepared to end her suffering if she takes a turn for the worst.
