Help!!! My sixth araucana to hatch has the yolk still attached, not absorbed! Will it die???

It might not! What you need to do is keep it in the brooder or incubator so it is warm, but separate. The other chicks may try and peck at the yolk. Some people put the chick in a tupperware in the brooder to create a barrier. The yolk has to be kept moist so the chick can work on absorbing it, though. A damp paper towel can do the trick, which will be warm if the chick is in a warm place. Sometimes the yolks dry up and fall off after a few days.

It didn't make it..

So I have 4 ameraucana, 5 araucana.
I will take pics when they are all fluffed up..
