My first chick hatched. He outs from a small egg and he had something. on his rear. It is making the shell stock to him. It. Looked like dark blood.

I couldn't get a good pic

Here is a pic of something. Not sure what it is.

It is on the shell now. He outs chirping away. And walking. Eyes. Open.

Can't really tell from your pic, but my guess is yoke sack.

How long does it take for a chick to dry completely?

This pic was taken at 7:40am. The chick hatched 1am.
Should i worry that he is pushing the other eggs around? I dont want him to break the other eggs. Nothing else is hatching.

So I now have 3 babies. Except the last baby to come out doesn't look good. One of the other chicks was standing on him and his neck looks crooked.

But I don't know.



it also looks like yoke is still there are around the leg. Is there anything I can do for it?

Another member here had a problem with a chick, ruptured yolk sac and crooked neck. But the chick's fine now. Have a look here:

Best of luck with the little one!

UPDATE:

He seems to be doing fine now. i guess it was just a temporary thing. i have to stay away from the incubator because i just want to hold em and care for them and when i can't i just want to do something to help.
