Hi everyone, I have a chick who is 9 days old. Since we have had her she has been very lethargic and not eating, but she does have water. Yesterday I noticed that her crop felt ‘dough-y’ on her right side, but the rest of it was fine. Today I gave her a couple drops of olive oil and massaged it, when I noticed something on the right of her back, just below her neck (see photos). It is like a grey, see-through bubble which I have not noticed before as it can only be seen from a certain angle. This is my first time raising chicks so I am not sure what it is and my other chicks are too fluffy for me to see this area- can someone please tell me what it could be and if it is related to her crop?
All help is appreciated.
