Thank you for the clarification @granny hatchet

the only way is by pulling/tugging on them or the shell. Other chicks could of seen the umbilical and tugged them out or the shell got pulled or someone tries to hatch a chick when its not ready.

It depends on how much is out too. I try to feed chick yoke water. but yeah, helping hatch is bad. I have to beg people just because there is a "pip' doesn't mean the chick is ready to hatch, and please don't help.

Do you have vetricyn (probably misspelled) spray for poultry? U had a chick hatch thst wasnt fully closed and used that 4× a day and it got better...but that is really big looking

I have the same problem and was wondering.....Can you use rubbing alcohol??? they use that on human babies umbilical cord.

Not completely sure other than it would hurt. It would cleanse n dry it off though....

The chick hatched on its own. I believe it was a ruptured yoke as there was yoke in the incubator. This is my first time hatching eggs and this has been pretty crazy.
