    CHICKEN SWAPS OF NH SWAP LISTINGS

    I'm looking for younger ducklings. My daughter put a duck egg under a broody chicken and I didn't know about it till she ran inside with the hatched duckling.

    Opening incubator during lock down?

    I removed about 6 chicks out of incubator because they were dry and figured it must be time for them to go into brooder there are still 20 more unhatched eggs. It was only opened a couple of times while i removed the empty shells and took out chicks. Will this affect the other eggs hatchability?

    Just hatched chick has sac on its bottom...

    The sac is alot longer and very thin at the vent now. Lots of blood trailing behind the chick on paper towel covering part of incubator floor. Not too active either. Only one other chick has hatched so far.

    Just hatched chick has sac on its bottom...

    I searched online that the sac that is attached to my just hatched chick is a yolk sac that if it doesn't absorb it will die. What are the chances of having a healthy chick in a week? Can it absorb the sac outside of the shell? Or did this have to happen before hatching?
