It just hatched out this morning and it has some bloody stuff hanging from its bottom. I read about the whole yolk sac thing, but there is no yellow in this what so ever. The chick is gaining strength, but I can't tell if it is drying up and going away. I would post a pic but the chick never gets in a spot where I can get a good pic. I was wondering if it is possibly after birth or a cord? This is my first chick to ever hatch so I'm totally new here. What should I do?
