Help!!! Air bubble on chick!!

[Eggcessive]

Have you found the crop yet, just to make sure? A couple of weeks ago, I had an older chick with a leaking air sac on the entire right side of the body, and I had to deflate it with a needle. I wouldn't have thought that it could reabsorb into the body that quickly overnight.

Have you found the crop yet, just to make sure? A couple of weeks ago,  I had an older chick with a leaking air sac on the entire right side of the body, and I had to deflate it with a needle.  I wouldn't have thought that it could reabsorb into the body that quickly overnight.

Last night I cuddled it and gently massaged that area. Maybe that helped? I found and checked the crop and it seems fine. I've kept a good eye on it today. I just don't know how it could've happened. It's in a brooder with 6 bantam chicks half it's size. (They think it's their mom. So cute )

No, they just have a small waterer in the brooder that's in my garage.
