I have a gosling that hatched early. Everything during the hatching process was very accelerated. I had my first gosling that hatched 5 days ago with no problems and he took nearly 3 days to go through the entire process. This one barely took a day. I know my humidity wasn't high enough because where he externally pipped, he kind of got shrink wrapped in there. It moved in there and tore at the membrane to the point where he made the vessels bleed. He came out about 11 this morning without having absorbed all the yoke. I'm guessing that where he was supposed to be absorbing the yolk is what is distended and red. There's a little bit of what I assume to be yolk sticking out. He's livening up, talks to me and my other gosling, and will drink water. I'm not sure if it will just go away on its own or if it's a more serious problem. I'm a little worried to be honest, so any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
