Ah, it's from you! Thanks for answer. Impressive feathers and curling on that chick- personally I love it....
Agree it should just be allowed to grow up and see how it does?

i have him with a oegb hen and two serama hens will see what they produce i do like his color and his tail is nice aswell the person that sold him to me does have hens but wont sell at the moment because they have chicks and will let me know when he does sell
Hope that's just air in her (normal) crop also. I'd be worried about letting that chick be too wet for too long or often.
I used to keep pigeons, sometimes there would be a newborn with crops full of air. as far as I can recall, they grew up fine.
I was told that she has a ruptured air sac and as long as it doesn't grow bigger, it should resolve on it's own. Other than that, she's very happy, healthy, active, eating and drinking and pooping fine. She was only wet for a few seconds while I snapped pics of her to find out what was wrong. Then she immediately got into a warm towel and under the heat lamp. I found out I had two other chicks with it too but would never have noticed it because of their feathers. I checked them all after I saw this one. It can be caused by trauma so maybe they got trampled in transit to the feed store?? Who knows??Could that just be her crop? Never seen that before. I'm also in northern az

Easter Eggers - have you been over to the AZ thread? You need to come join me as I'm the only one on there as of late that is not down south - lol. I am in Chino.
Thanks soooo much for all your help aoxa! This morning it was way down but when I just checked her this evening, it is back up - I don't think it's bigger but it does seem to fluctuate. I hope she will be fine because I already am in love with her!https://www.backyardchickens.com/t/282716/just-hatched-chick-with-big-bubble-on-neck
Here is a thread with a chick with very similar issues. I went searching when I had a chick like this. Ruptured air sack is what everything pointed to. Air in crop could be possible as well. Either way I think she will be fine. Very cute chick
