Hernia? Are these intestines?

[Friskybinx]

I just pulled some baby chicks out of the incubator. One of them still have the long strand of umbilical attached to it and I saw this. Is there saving this chick? How do you treat this? I’ve never experienced this before it looks like some yolk and some intestines but I can’t be too sure.

Put it back in for a few more hours, it may be still absorbing the yolk.

Yolk, & some umbilical cord.

Yolk, & some umbilical cord.

I’ve put it back in the incubator. Will it resolve itself? Anything else I need to do here?

It might resolve; it might not. If it doesn't, you might want to consider doing what I did: Failure to Absorb Yolk - Graphic Pictures
