Looks like your pressing the crop to me. See that she is drinking plenty of water - add some poultry vitamins or electrolytes. Since she is so small, she may do better with wet chick starter - this is sometimes easier to eat. Just keep watch on the beak, she will most likely hone that down later.So after some research I'm worried about subcutaneous emphysema... nothing is overly swollen but there is a spot on the vest that crackles when pressed, a small spot, nothing real obvious when looking.. the chick makes a clicking noise when breathing and stops often to rest and breath... then goes back to try to eat and drink.. act normal other than the resting and breathing... not as active as the others though. Should this heal on its own possibly?? It's the spot I'm touching, it deflated if you touch it
