NEED HELP ASAP - Chick is stuck

[Kellyjenny]

Is this the same chick that you did an assisted hach.

Is there a hole in that area that it's bleeding from

Yes. Not sure if there is a hole or something that it is bleeding from... I haven't been able to take the chick out of the incubator yet because another egg is really close to hatching and I didn't want to risk that chick getting chilled because temp/humidity will drop the moment I open the incubator. I was going to wait until the other chick is out and somewhat dried before getting the 'problem child' out of the incubator for closer inspection. If it IS bleeding, it is only bleeding a little and not as much as it was when it first came out.

Here's a better picture

OK, I went ahead and just pulled the problem child out of the incubator. Here's pictures and a video link of the blob. I'm guessing a bloody yolk sac?

@Kiki can you please help.

 

[Kellyjenny]

I'm trying to get some help for you some good instructions to what to do I would keep her away from the other chicks. Make sure she's under the heating lamp maybe in a little box because you don't want her to get cold and you don't want her to be near the other chicks. You don't want them bumping into her.

For now I have treated this with some neosporin and isolated him in a Dixie cup. It IS still bleeding a little and draining yolk.

 

[Kellyjenny]

I really don't think it should be draining the yolk and they need to absorb it.

Agree... It's not free flowing or anything but when it bumps into things, it oozes both blood and yolk. I'm hoping the cup helps keep him from moving around in order to let it clot better.
