Okay, I cleaned the chick off and moved the brooder a little farther away from the heat lamp. The red sac is still there and she is still trying to peck it. What do I do?
I posted a thread yesterday talking about this silkie chick, but I didn't get any definite answers and she is getting worse. One person mentioned that it could be an unabsorbed yolk sac or a prolapse. She had no problems when I checked on her yesterday morning, but I noticed a redish colored sac...
