I went to do chores this morning ours girls our 15weeks old this week and I opened the bin to get feed out and there was this beautiful egg!

How old is your chicken and do you have any pics?

On the tread there is a pic that looks exactly like it, 2 and a half to 3 weeks. I'm sitting with him now. The swelling has gone down a bit and is less red, more pinkish.

What kind of chickens do you have?

Is that the only chick you have and where does he stay/live, do you have a brooder and what are you feeding her/him and do you put electrolytes or probiotics in their water?

No he's not the only one, just the only one with this problem. He lives with his mother and 4 other siblings outdoors in a house with a fenced in yard, I'll try to get pics of him, and where he lives, and his family. We are feeding him Scratch (cracked corn), and Start 'N' Grow (Chick starter/feed), that's what our local feed store calls them. And no, we do not put electrolytes or probiotics in their water. Should I, and if so, where should I get it. Our feed store doesn't carry any.

They will be posted on the tread.
