HELP !!! Premie with thing attached !!!

[tbz]

One of the hatcling hatched prematurely, something is attached to the stomach I'm not sure it's yolk sac or intestines.

The baby still can't open its eyes, the only thing it did is just lying there and twitch around.

Any help would be appreciated to save this little one.

Based on the behavior you describe, it may not make it. keep it on a moist surface, mist a few times a day. In order to know if it's the yolk sac or intestines, you'd have to turn it over and see if there's an opening in its stomach. I'd advise not to bother it, keep it comfortable and see if it can make it, but there are no guarantees.

There is no opening, only a cord connecting to the thing. I guess it's an umbilical cord?

It flipped itself over and I managed to take some shots

Poor little thing It doesn't look fully developed. Sadly, I wouldn't expect this baby to make it

Keep it on moist towels. I had one like that. But he ripped it more. Had to use liquid bandage to keep it shut cause everything would keep coming out. Lived for about a year and succumbed to other problems.
