    my chick has a bloody thing coming out of its butt!

    The chick just hatched I think because it's still wet. Whatever is hanging out doesn't look right, has anyone heard of this before? I'm afraid it's gonna die.

    I dont know a lot about chickens but it does look like mine when she was smaller, shes a brown leghorn. I noticed yours has the same yellowish neck that turns to a darker brown throughout the rest of the body.

    Post Pics of your Leghorns

    The chick on the left is a Rhode Island Red I think, and the one on the right is a Brown Leghorn. Anyone know? The left was hatched from a brown egg and the right is from a white one. Our hens both layed eggs and the Leghorn hatched them. 4 white hatched but only 1 brown out of 12 hatched! :(
