My last chick born, 2 and a half days after my other 4 chicks (it was laid the same day as all the others however it arrived late and had a harder time hatching into the world) has a bump on it's beak that I don't see on the other chicks. In the attached photo it is sleeping. Its doing fine, moves around well. Its younger than the others so it wants more rest. I'm not sure how well the bump can be seen. I don't have any photos of the "normal" chicks beaks atm. Is this some sort of illness? I read about fowl pox but I doesn't appear to be that

Did you notice this from the beginning? It could just be an abnormality it was born with. I would keep an eye on it and if you notice it growing significantly, reach back out!
