Help with struggling chick!

[Bunnybryn]

i would just leave it and let nature take its course, i bet it will fall off on its own.

Last question- how to I force feed it? It's trying to eat but it doesn't look like it's been very successful.

i have a small forceps and i open the chicks mouth then put the small piece of food on the back of the chicks tongue then drip a drop of water in its mouth to get it to swallow. i suggest hard boiling and egg and cutting up the yolk in very small pieces for its food that seems to give unhealthy chicks a good kickstart.

Just an update for anyone who has this issue- the chick is doing great! She still has that glob stuck to her naval but it's much smaller and she's otherwise a normal healthy baby. Thanks everyone for your help!
