Help! Chick Born with see through Belly

[Krosfyre9838]

I've lost one chick with this hatch so far and it was due to an accident.... 5 of my babies were born healthy but my wife informed me something was wrong with the chick that came out while I was at work. After I got home I seen the chick has a see through belly. So far she seems strong we plan to keep her in the incubator for longer. Anyone else had this or know what I should do? Should I cull this one?

She stands up in the incubator

I'd leave her in the incubator. Keep the temp the temp 99.5 and the humidity the same as you had it, guessing 70% or so. She will absorb that and rest/sleep a lot. I'd give her up to another whole day, but maybe in a few hours she'll look okay.

Yes your guessing right! And I sure Will, I hope she does well. I don't like culling for no reason ya kno w.... This seems more than just unabsorbed yolk, but I'm new at this

She chirps healthy enough, but I never seen a see through belly/bottom

Just leave her be in the incubator overnight or several hours at least and I think you'll see a huge difference!

She is still about the same I worry about her

She just didn't finish baking, keep her in the incubator for another couple of days.

Her little belly indeed changed some, instead of see through it turned red.... but sad to say the little girl didn't make it. I post this because people always ask the outcome.

I wish it were a better one, my hens are usually brown and I've lost two brown chicks this hatch the next set in the incubator are due in two days.
