Thanks :) I put neosporin on it. How often should i do that? It's by itself in the brooder. It was the only one that hatched. I had one rocking but i think the chick turned it and it never hatched. i opened it this morning because i didn't hear it chirp anymore and it didn't make it :(
So my first and only hatchling :( has a funny looking butt. Is this normal? it was dragging egg material and shell but that dried and fell off and this is left........
She's still trying but there is a string (umbilical cord maybe) and yolk still stuck to her. she keeps fighting it off and then she gets pooped. Is that still ok? will she break free eventually? hatching is nerve wracking!! lol
This is my first time hatching. I put 6 eggs in the bator. only 2 have chicks i think. one started to hatch and died. :( this one hatched but i think it's stuck to the shell or is this normal?
