1) What type of bird , age and weight (does the chicken seem or feel lighter or thinner than the others.)
Lavender orbs. Maybe 6 days old, smaller then the others.

2) What is the behavior, exactly.
Self isolation, she doesn’t move much, juts doesn’t match the others behavior

3) How long has the bird been exhibiting symptoms?
We have only had here 24 hours
4) Are other birds exhibiting the same symptoms?
No not at all

5) Is there any bleeding, injury, broken bones or other sign of trauma.
See pictures

6) What happened, if anything that you know of, that may have caused the situation.
I honestly think it came from the breeder this way, and we are just noticing.

7) What has the bird been eating and drinking, if at all.

Yes it is eating and drinking, I just put it on medicated food
8) How does the poop look? Normal? Bloody? Runny? etc.
Haven’t been able to check yet, just got it into isolation in a box by itself.

9) What has been the treatment you have administered so far?
None so far

10 ) What is your intent as far as treatment? For example, do you want to treat completely yourself,
or do you need help in stabilizing the bird til you can get to a vet?
Waiting for ideas from here,

11) If you have a picture of the wound or condition, please post it. It may help.
Posted one of the rear and one of the back, you can see the sores.

12) Describe the housing/bedding in use
Picture posted of current brooder.

I am still digging through forum looking for someone else’s post with same issue.

I was trying to post a video of my little girl, seems she is also laboring to breath, and i am noticing her right breast area seems abnormal. I think you can see it in the picture.

Video won’t attach

Is she able to poop.
I hate to ask, can you get a good clear picture of her bottom? You got someone that can help you with that, it's so hard to see.
Here we go I cleaned what poop was on her butt and her is a close up picture.

I watched her pass gas not sure if it was an attempt to poop or just gas.

Best I can tell her vent is open I’ve watched her have some water poops nothing that looks normal or solid yet. As small as she is I think this is the navel I’m having trouble seeing with the swelling and her squirming. Looking at the picture again it appears something is coming out
