Hi,
I have one day old chicks and I believe this little baby hadn’t yet absorbed it’s yolk sac when born. The other chicks have been pecking at it and what’s left is cold/wet and a little bloody. I’ve separated this one with 3 other smaller ones into a brooder and have some neosporin on this area with a bandage around it. Anything else I can do? I’d had it separated most of the day or with only a few smaller chicks, but, that didn’t matter. This is a new incubation hatch, my first.
