Your temp is probably a little off from where it should be. Just give it a few days to heal up, and keep a close eye on them.

Does she keep them in the incubator until the red bulge is gone? Or take them out after 24 hrs. and put them under a heat lamp in the brooder? Tomorrow is day 21 and I want to know what to do if mine do this! *Nail biting*

They can stay in the incubator for a few days. If they have something coming outta their backsides you wanna keep it moist. Who knows what it might be, but you dont want it to get Brooder litter stuck to it or possibly tear on something. I say move him into the brooder no less than 24 hours after they arrive, unless they are fluffed out and that "thing"has started to look like its drying up. Im no expert though. Any other opinions? Also try Google to get a definitive answer on what the "thing" could be.
