@Texas Kiki, you hatch.
What are we looking at?
Wound or intestine?
Or intestine because of wound?

Not sure, but I think the best thing to do it end it's suffering asap.

You answered two questions. Was the chick's belly large and swollen?

I am leaning toward a diagnosis of Omphalitis. This is when the yolk sac isn't completely absorbed at hatch, and that often leads to infection from bacteria taking advantage of an opportunity. In addition to the almost certain infection, the intestines outside the body are drying out and colonizing bacteria as we are making this thread.

This chick has a very poor outlook. You may certainly try the treatment I told you in my earlier post, but this tiny thing has probably less than a 30% chance of making it and having a normal life.

The belly wasn’t swollen it was born with the untested cord out
