AAAHHH!
Help!!!

I thought my chick had pasty butt and pulled it off only to realize it's not. It's higher than that. Umbilical?
It's bleeding a little.

What do I do?

Welcome to the AZ neighborhood FissionFarms

Congrats on the new little peepers Papa! I want more....darn chicken math. I got a broody that doesn't understand that plastic easter eggs won't hatch.

silkie = dark skin and 5 toes per foot. Might have a vaulted skull, might have a walnut comb. With hatchery birds you can expect faults to be common, so may not get all of those. In about a week you should see the wing feathering as silkied

That is always fun!

Is it still bleeding? a little septic stick or powder will stop the bleeding, or cornstarch. next time just leave it or if it needs off, twist. Icky I know, but yeah.

I hope the little one is fine now.

I've also heard of using flour. When I raised bunnies yrs ago, that was one of the things to do if trimming a toe nail too short.
