Is this normal for a new chick? This is my first time incubating and the first chick was already hatched by the time I got home for lunch - sometime between 9 and 12:30. It didn't have anything hanging off of it. The chick in the picture hatched between 1:30 and 4. It was dragging that mass around the bator and the first chick kept stepping on it so I put it in a shallow bowl I warmed to confine it.
. Will it dry up and fall of in the next day or so?
