Need help... what can i do to save this baby goose

[mishab6299]

Baby goose is a few hours old. I'm not sure if it has prolapse or just the egg sack not fully absorbed. Please offer suggestions and advice.

Nothing you can do but try to keep others from pecking at it. Maybe it will be ok.

That is the yolk sack. Keep the others away from it so I can absorb it and it should be fine.

How to know difference between yolk sack and prolasp?

Keep baby on a towel (no pine shavings or hay yet) and keep warm. It looks like remnants of the yolk sac. Keep it away from other babies and it will probably shrivel and fall off or be absorbed.

The yolk sack will be lower below the butt were the prolapse would take place.

How long does it typically take to absorb?

Depends most of the time a day or two.
