This baby chick was born on monday. On it's back, the feathers are much shorter than what the others chickens have, and on both sides underneath it's wings it doesn't have feathers as showed in picture 2. It has been like that since it hatched. Today thus tumor on the neck appeared as showed in picture one. (The feathers are sticky around it because I sprayed with a wound spray for chickens). It doesn't seem to be any air inside the tumor. Should I take this baby chick to the vet? I also haven't seen it drink on it's own yet, so I have been putting it's beak in water several times every day, but it's eating, pooping and have the same activity level as the other chicks.
