Yolk Sac

[WilliamH]

This chick was hatched 2 days ago. It was hatched with its yolk sac sticking out. Here’s a picture of before and after. Do you guys think it’s okay for me to take the chick out of the incubator now? Will the sac dry up or is it ok now?

Yes, just be sure the place you put the chick is very clean. Also, the chick may not survive so be prepared for that. Should the chick survive the next two-three days then it will, quite likely, grow into a beautiful bird.
