Need help with my Silkie chick

[Wyorp Rock]

No she is not being PECKED. Yes she is separated with the other chick

Whooaaa now, slow your roll there...

It was just a question being asked, no need to get all bent out of shape.

If you wish, take a clear, well lit photo of the bump and post it that would be great.
It's not uncommon for a chick to have a pecking wound like that.

If it's getting bigger, apply a thin layer of triple antibiotic ointment on it and stop rubbing and messing with it.

Could the other chick have pecked and caused the bump to become larger? When chicks show symptoms of wry neck they can become targets, unfortunately. I have used BluKote spray before to color a red bump or scrape blade, so as not to attract pecking. Blue food color might help.

I am so sorry I didn't mean to put that in caps. My phone did an auto text I couldn't figure how to fix it.

So I should put Neosporin cream?
