Peeps with malformed intestines

[KrazyK]

Hi,
I am sure that there is a thread on this somewhere here but I cannot find it.

Some of my peeps (about 2 in 10) are being hatched with their intestines hanging out.

What am I doing wrong? Is it something easy to correct?

Any advice is welcomed. It breaks my heart to see them like that.

Do you have any pictures? It could be their cord is still attached. Is the cord attached to its belly button or vent?

probably not intestines, they haven't absorbed their yolk sac all the way yet. Leave them in the incubator a day or 2 and they usually end up fine.

If I take a picture of the next one is there a way to upload them here or will I need to email them to you?
