Will this chick live?

[Clucking Lovely]

Thisittle one hatched on its own but it seems to have a swollen backside. Is there something wrong? Will it make it? Its peeping away...

It looks like unabsorbed yolk. If I’m right, it will be fine.

Note: I’m still learning about hatching. Not even close to being an expert!

Thank you!

It looks like it has absorbed the yolk but you can see it through the skin, give it some time and it looks like it will be fine can you maybe get a picture of the place where it absorbed the yolk from (the navel) it looks like there might be something going on there but I can't see. It the chick acting like the other or is it trying to stand?

it is trying to stand, but stumbles around like its drunk

Ok that's good, my chicks could not completely run around without falling until after day 3 one of my chicks could not even stand at all but after a couple of days of helping it off of its back it begun to stand normally, just give it time I think it will be fine

 

[Clucking Lovely]

Im worried. It doesnt seem to be getting better.

 

[Clucking Lovely]

It died.

Some make it and some don't.

It died.

We had a chick we were watching closely too, die yesterday. I’m sorry, it’s hard!
