Hi everyone
I have some chicks which are 10 days old now and I checked them this morning and I noticed one of them has a very small crop compared to the others, I fed her some scrambled egg and she had a bit to eat but all the others went crazy over it, her crop is half the size as theirs and not as full, she has normal looking poops

She was smaller than them from the beginning but I've seen her crop bigger than it is now, she is also slightly less active

I hope this isn't an early sign and she will go down hill?
 
most chicks pull through, but occasionally one doesnt .. special treatment will likely make it harder if it does go downhill thats the only bit i can offer ..
