My hen, Waffles, has been brooding some eggs, and her first egg finally hatched this morning... it hatched with it's yolk sack unabsorbed, but thankfully, it absorbed completely. However when I went to go check on it again, I found a medium-sized lump on the left side of it's abdomen, with what appears to be it's intestines or maybe another organ protruding from a hole in the middle of the lump. It is acting a bit lethargic, it's still cheeping though and opening it's eyes, but I have no idea what to do... I would love some advice, and is it possible that he'll live? Thanks in advance for any advice, it's much appreciated!!!
Here are some pictures of where the organs are protruding (he's falling asleep in the picture) :
