Try posting this in Beardie ER ... you might get a quicker response. Sorry I can't help.

This person had the same issue...check out that post...

Also, another post from Tracy on another thread mentioned that they don't have umbilical cords but instead yolk saks...

yes this is part of the yolk sac that is still attatched to the baby. this is normal and I would suggest putting the little guy on wet paper towels for a couple days until the yolk is absorbed. This is nutrition that the baby is still obtaining from the egg.
