    Yolk not fully absorbed initially, advise needed

    I have a chick that didn’t fully absorb their yolk before hatching. It was just a little bit so I found some similar posts online and followed the advice there with my own tweaks and the little one is looking pretty good now but I want to know what else can go wrong at this point and what I can...

    Ducklings hatched with Yolk not fully absorbed.

    I had a time crawling all over internet articles that pertain to ducklings and chicks hatching with their yolks not being fully absorbed. Which seems to be surprisingly rare. This may sometimes occur when the duckling/chick is premature. All of the articles I came across had rather sad...
