Should I do anything?

Recommended Posts

Over the last couple of days my Indian game and Welsh Black fowl chicks have hatched. One of the Welsh Blacks had real trouble and took a couple of days with some minor assistance from a wet flannel. He/she has either remains of it's umbilical cord or a small herniated bowel which wouldn't be popped back inside his/her tummy.

It seems to be drying out and I'm hoping it's just umbilical but it's rather red and bulbous, which suggests bowel. He/she is fit and well otherwise and good looking strong chicky.

Should I do anything or let nature take it's course? Has anyone had experience of anything similar?
