ok so i had two chicks due for today one hatched yesturday i left it in the incubator then it was getting stuck so i moved it into the brooder. this chicks looks as if it has a brown/red wire or blood vessel which i assume to be the umbilical cord? then the other chick hatched today.So i moved it with the other one this looks as if one of it feet are swollen or maybe this is just because it is tired. when i moved them together the older one was harming the younger one i left it for a bit then it turned the younger chick over and was on its back! i seperated them (they both have food and water.) My question what should i do about the weekest chick with regards to its foot and fighting. And also what should i do about both of their umbilical cords
