My chick hatched last night with the yolk not absorbed yet, this morning he is still alive but it looks like the intestines are now coming out of his navel. What can I do to help it? I have it wrapped in a damp paper towel and sitting up in the incubator to see if he will try and absorb it but what if it doesn't?
Sadly I'm hoping that he will just pass away to get him out of this situation and I don't want to have to do it myself. Is there any way I can save him? Maybe try and push the intestines back in and bandage him up?
This is my first time hatching eggs and it breaks my heart for the little guy!
