Incubators Anonymous

Need advice and since this group has chicks a lot lol i thought id ask you

i have a 4 week old chick that looks about 1 week old in since but 2 days old in feathering

His siblings are doing well ............. Is this something new or is it a rare thing Ill get photos tomarrow its a BCM
Idk how rare it is, but I had one in my first hatch that was about bald because it got NO feathers except maybe feet feathers and it's down pretty much couldn't cover his/her body! LOL He/she did finally feather out and is LOVELY but we still can't tell if it's a boy or girl! lol
 
Leave it in the hatcher until it dries completely off and heals up. That sounds like the yolk sack. Any that still have anything hanging off them should be left in the hatcher until completely healed. The older chicks will peck at it if you move it... leave it in there.
oh no the yolk sac is completely gone the greenish tint is on the butt of the chick on one side
 
the chicks keep pecking at the little chick with the bad wing on its wing i kept it away all day and it stopped bleeding the other is drying up and their is one that pecks a bit to much but i hope things will calm down i put food and water to keep em busy.
 
You see the backside of the chick one side is green! on mine

I don't see anything wrong with it. Maybe I am not seeing what you are seeing? The whole chick looks dark skinned??? My silkies look somewhat like that when they hatch (only with even darker legs/beaks) - what is the chick?

If you are concerned that it might harm the chick go post it on the "Emergency" section. There are people over there that can help you if you need advice in an emergency.
