4week old chick has a swollen bottom!!!

It is a prolapse, but many things can cause it... coccidiosis, a bacterial infection, constipation, etc. Can you take it to a vet? If not, what antibiotics do you have?

The bruising of it's belly is an indication of something like a bacterial infection in it's intestines or abdominal cavity.

I'll have to get some antibiotics I guess. I don't have any on hand. Best place to get some??

Anything I can do for this chick? I cleaned it good and pushed it back in (gently) and am holding it in while the chick is wrapped in a towel.
