Its normal for chicks to have bald spots

I assume that you have heard about the crop, a bag in the neck of the chicken to store food. If not, take a look and compare it with your bird. When full it looks like a small ball in the breast.

Sour crop and impacted crop are two possible problems in the breast/neck area

Cute baby!

As stated by another poster.. I also think it's the crop you're describing.. the part that holds food before it enters the gizzard. I too was worried the first time I saw it.
