One of my baby chicks that was hatching today got accidentally stepped on by mama and her claw punctured baby's stomach. There was a little bit of blood and a lot of yolk. All of it is dried up now though and she is not bleeding anymore. However, a small bit of intestine is poking out, along with a yellow sac covered in blood vessels which I'm guessing is what's left of her yolk. I don't know what to do, but after a bit of brainstorming, my best idea was to gently push the intestine and yolk back into her belly and seal it with New Skin liquid bandage. Does this sound like a good idea? Would it work? The chick still seems strong, she's opening her eyes a bit and cheeping every now and then, and struggles when I move her at all.
