Maybe im just paranoid but i figured it wouldnt hurt to make a new thread about our baby chick we're raising.

The last few days she has been pretty lethargic, only wants to cuddle up and stay warm, hasnt been eating or drinking much and has been keeping her feathers ruffled up.
Come this morning it looks like the area around her eye (the one that was, and still is recovering from what ever was previously wrong with it) and under her beak are swelling up.

She also is making "gassy noises" for lack of a better description and keeps going to breath with her beak open.

Is there anything i can do?

Update:

I gave her some of her feed mixed in with some water that has added vitamins to make it mushy and easier for her to eat and she happily had some of that and seems to have perked up a little, but she is still very lathargic and puffed up, and under her neck and eye are still swolen
