Urgent help please swollen neck 3 days old chick

You did right feeding her raw yolk. I would do that again.

I read that she was stuck in the shell and you had to help her hatch? If that's the case, you could have a chick that's having difficulty thriving.

Do you have any other chicks that are lethargic or going off food and water?

I have one little frizzle, which looks like it gasping for air, and breathing funny, he has his eye closed. That only just started today.

I don't think he will live, which is a shame and I will do whatever I can to save him..

I have used a little Amprolium in water, recommended by a hatchery here in WA.

both have been removed, from the others just in case.
 
Yes was was pipping for 2 days, when I took action. She was so dry in the shell, it took a lot of work and warm water to get her out.
She was fine day one, and day 2 start to go down hill.
Last night she was with me all night and warm. today after cuddles, wheat bags, olive oil and sugar water and yolk, I think her bubble is going down a little. But have no Idea how long that will take.
