HELP! Chick is hatching but there is blood.

Mine did the same thing but my other chick was pecking and pulling at it. Is this one doomed? I removed the other chick.

did your chick make it?

My silkie did the same thing but blood was on the mat. The chick has a small portion like an umbilical cord, it will dry up and fall off but I have never seen blood like a trail of it. The chick is alive and not bleeding. What happened?

I have a chick that has a hole and his/ her beak out and cheeping but it isn't even trying to hatch anymore (this is the first day) and there has been quite a bit of blood and one of the chicks was pecking the shell and membrane and it started bleeding more but it isn't seeming to be breathing worse or anything ... what do I do?

One of my chicks just hatched and there is blood everywhere. I don't know if it's going to make it. :-(

What happened to everyone's chicks out is doing this as well but looks to be moving still and we hear chirping but not sure which egg but she's all bloody but she looks to be breaking through the air cell where I marked

I had 13 out of 21 eggs hatch but only six made it.
There were a lot of bloody hatches and I'm not sure why. Those chicks were weak at birth and didn't make it.
I'm fortunate enough to have six healthy chicks.

They are so cute what are they? I had one hatched out kinda bloody but he sat there for a while and ended up soaking it all up I presume,because he finally came out okay! Did you get shipped eggs? My shipped egg pipped outside aircell so that's why I asked maybe that's why that happens

 

[Butterflygirl50]

Yes shipped eggs and I had side pips too. My bloody eggs didn't make it but six healthy chicks did.
They are Silkies, chocolate, black and grey, two Cochin Bantams and a blonde/white chick that came in a mystery egg.
They are doing great.
Happy to hear yours made it.
Enjoy your new babies.

i would leave it alone and let it hatch

Help! Something happened to the egg and half of the shell came off but the white part is still there the chick has been inside moving every once and a while but when I looked again there was a blood spot what do I do?
