Looks like it may be her crop, see if it goes down.

It's hard to tell from the photos if that's an actual bump or just one of the weird bald-looking spots that sometimes show up when feathers start growing in. I remember seeing something very similar on my Lavender Orpingtons last spring. If it is her crop it should be flat in the morning before she eats. Can you get a better picture? How long has it been like this?

Hi Everyone! You guys are awesome btw. So grateful for everything you do to help. I am brand new at this. I have a 6 day old chick that has the exact thing. A boil on the shoulder! This chick had a sibling that died from a … oh I forget Omni something…A red infection on the butt. This chick seems absolutely fine. Happy and moving about but with a big boil on the back of his neck/ shoulder. Does anyone know what it could be and what I can do?
