I found him outside the nest surrounded in blood. Put him under a heat lamp. Will he make it?

Kind of depends on a whole lot of things.
How much blood, and from where?
Was he an intentional hatch?
Looks very young.
Keep us updated. I hope he makes it.
A enough to make my hand red and for to drops to fall... So kinda alot. 😬He just hatched.
I think that his mom saw that he was hatching and wanted to help but he was not fully ready and some veins on the egg broke.
I stopped the bleeding.
The broody is a Australorp and he is a bantam. She might've gotten to rough. :confused:
 
Okay, that is a good sign. Do you think the momma did this? You may want to keeping checking in on the other eggs to make sure this doesn't happen again. Keep up the good work, Avery
The mom most likely did this. She is a first time broody and she is a Australorp and the chick is a really small bantam. She might've misjudged her strenght.
