HELP Swollen Bottom in day old pekin bantam.

[bangobantams]

One of my day old pekin bantam chicks has a rather large rounded bottom and has not come up fluffy like the others. What could this be?

Looks like some problem with the yolk sack or absorbing the yolk sack. You might want to post on either the Emergencies or Hatching Eggs section of BYC for help. https://www.backyardchickens.com/f/10/emergencies-diseases-injuries-and-cures https://www.backyardchickens.com/f/5/incubating-hatching-eggs Here is a link with some info on it about 3/4 down the page. https://www.backyardchickens.com/a/hatching-eggs-101

Chick is looking much better this morning... obviously it was an absorbtion issue. Swelling has gone down considerably and chick is now looking fluffy as it should.
