bloody naval chick - first hatch pls help!!

[candyinTX]

Got a couple of chicks that had bloody naval. Got blood everywhere in the incubator. Mow they are dry and hopping around. Can I out them with the others in the brooder or should they stay separate?.should I clean them first if so any how's to?

I put flour on the navels if they are bleeding-(stops the bleeding) plus it helps them to not stick.

Thank you! can i put them in the brooder with the rest of the chicks? the bleeding seems to have clotted and stops, just looks bad. Are they going to be prone to spreading illness?

the other chicks may peck the hole, the other chicks cannot catch rough navel.

they need to be extra warm, and I give them yolk water. If they can make it past 3 days old they should be okay.

Thanks....Silly question, I'm sure, but......what is yolk water?? Lol this is my first hatch. thank you for being patient. I really appreciate it.

i also noticed that for some the naval (i guess that is what this is) is a slit. they seem happy and active but still...i noticed some its closed, some its a slit and others a bulb... for the most part they are closed. maybe 5 out of the 25 that have clear issue. thanks!

yolk mixed with water- then hand water the chicks.
