Thank you so much for your response. So far, so good. The cord dried out and fell off last night and baby chick seems to be normal!

I have the same issue and she seems to be the runt. I thought it was caked on poop and couldn’t poop so I tried removing with warm water. When that didn’t do much I put some olive oil on it and still nothing. Then it dawned on me that their bum is not that low and finally figured out it was her navel so I brought her pack to mama. She wasn’t moving much but when mama gave her s tap she/he started chirping and huddled underneath. I hope this isn’t a danger to it and makes it worse if wet with oil. I feel terrible and just hope it doesn’t get worse. It was all dried up and it looked like caked on poop. All I need now is reassurance that it’ll be fine or should I try to get the oil off. Whew!
