Chirping
Hi all,
I’ve read all I can on here about this but looking for some opinions.
Chick is a couple days old. Very lethargic, still eats and drinks but needs encouragement.
Chick has a critical care vitamin water and has had a very small amount of boiled egg yolk.
You can see in the pics there is a bubbly bit under the skin. Feels like liquid but you can see the air bubbles. If I press hard there is a crackly sound. Crop is full as you can see, is this just a full crop, is it a burst air sac?
I just sterilised the area, lanced it with a sterile needle and it went down, but has immediately refilled.
How long should I leave it until I release it again?
