Chick hatched yesterday with a small amount of the egg sack attached.
It was hard to work out what to do by reading online so I reluctantly left her in the coop with mum hen and other chicks.
Checked this morning and seems to be doing okay but the sack has now dried up but still attached.
Is there anything I can do or do I leave it to hopefully fall off?
 
Hello! Can you post a pic? If the umbilicus is dried you can cut it off. @Kiki can you help? 💞
This is what it looks like the chick is very lethargic and sleepy hasn’t eaten or drunk anything as off yet

This does not look good.
Don't put or tug on it at all.

It doesn't sound like it is going to make it.
