If it had some injury it could be hematoma from trauma or it could be gas from sub q bacteria. Does it feel spongey or fluid filled? If hematoma the body will reabsorb the fluid. If feels spongey may need to be on antibiotics. Good luck.

That's good! If doesn't start to shrink in a couple days or gets worse it may need to see a vet. I saw this happen to a horse years ago and it stemmed from a cut on the leg.​

Don't see any cuts but i just mixed the 2 month old chicks and the mother with the rest of flock maybe other chicken pecked it
