We had an easter egger x chick hatch yesterday (under a broody hen) with a bump on its head. Picture below. Also working on a video.
Last night it looked like a bump on the skin, not an open wound. I've seen chicks pecked on the head and it didn't look like that either. I put a natural cream on it for antibacterial purposes.
This morning it looks scabbed over. The chick is less active than the others but not extremely so.
Anyone know what's wrong? Or what I should do?
