Can you post a pic of what you are seeing, or at least describe it in detail and maybe someone can point you in the right direction.

I've been trying to download pics or a video but having problems doing it from my device. I'll keep trying.

Videos have to be Vimeo or YouTube, I don't think there's any other way. Do you have the desk top version of byc on your device?

I got them to load to my profile on here but cant embed them. It says they are there but not. There are 3 pics in my default folder of this newest chick. I'll have to use desktop tomorrow.

It looks to me there's a little left over "cord" and the "navel" isn't closed up yet. Generally it's not a big deal as long as it doesn't get infected. If you have any bacitracin or antibiotic ointment (without pain reliever) you can put a little on the open "navel" and as long as he is healthy in every other way he should be ok.

Well, he was doing great I thought, but he passed away just a lil bit ago.

Poor guy.
