    Should I remove it? Chord wrapped around a leg

    So I did, it looks like the chick developed spraddle leg due to it being tied back by that chord for a while

    Should I remove it? Chord wrapped around a leg

    (Wasn’t sure if this thread or the raising chickens thread was the right one for this since I hatched them) He hatched a few days ago and began walking funny yesterday and I thought it was probably straddle leg and had gotten the thing for it but upon checking today I noticed this. Is it safe to...

    Should I attempt assisted hatching?

    Out of curiosity would it be bad if I did nothing?. Like it’s walking, eating, drinking. It can still poop so the crust isn’t covering, aside from being way small and a bit bonier it seems to be living normally. Like personally I’m not sure I wanna just leave it with crusty bits but if I did...

    I had to assist the one you’re referring too, he’s doing fine, the one having problems hatched on his own

    How do I soak the area without putting the chick in water? Or is that the way to do it?

    The best I could do photo wise, that’s what the area looks like right now, the chick is moving but seems to have a wobble when the leg brushes against it. It’s all one big crust so I can’t really rub it off without pulling it all off and i dont know if that will hurt it.

    Good I think, been keeping it separate, but the yolk sac has dried into a crusty layer on the underbelly and I’m not sure if I should just leave it alone or do something about it.

    Should I attempt assisted hatching?

    So I ended up having to assist, and he’s doing fine, chilling in the incubator as we speak, but I do have a question on another one. It hatched still stuck to the egg by umbilical cord and after it had essentially pushed it till it snapped off I noticed it had two little peanut sized things...

    And in this instance if I do remove the shell and I see signs of veins then I just leave it be right?

    I have been watching videos. The ones I’ve seen so far they completely removed the outer shell but I’m not comfortable doing that.

    Should I attempt assisted hatching?

    I have been, and yeah the chirping is consistent volume wise but it does more wiggling than chirping

    Should I attempt assisted hatching?

    This is the clearest photo I could take, i dont know if you can see its beak sticking out, it’s been like that since my first initial post
