Help!! Please!

So, on April 21st, I got a 2 week old baby chicken. Now, she's a month old(I don't know) and she has a bump on her right side and her left side is completely normal. Is this fatal?):

Bump where on her right side? The breast? If so its her crop.

 

[ElaineLuong]

Below her neck. Why isn't her left side poofy like the right one? Is it normal? Safe? Fatal? Painful?

 

[pichuris]

They only have one crop. Its completely normal. This is where the food goes and starts to be digested. In the morning before letting her eat check for this bump. Then 20 minutes after she eats check her again. It will be full and big.

Hello and welcome....so glad you joined BYC

The crop is on the right side. And chicks love to eat so much that it does look abnormal
