So this image isn’t very clear the cord is just barely sticking out and It has a bump on her yolk sac bump like it’s not completely in. Not bloody, doesn’t look super baD but I’ve never dealt with this before and I did help her hatch a little hit.

:welcome sorry for the problem. Keep applying antibiotic ointment to that area, and hopefully the chick will not develop an internal infection. Also keep the chick in as clean an environment as is possible until it is healed. Good luck.

I've had plenty of chicks hatch like this. She should be fine so long as none of the others pick at it.
