If needed you can tie off the umbilicus with a piece of dental floss or fishing line close to it's body. Then, cut the umbilicus on the yolk side. This is needed when you cannot un-tangled the neonates.
If it doesn't need to be cut and doesn't absorb the yolk I would offer it a fuzzy mouse. If it doesn't eat I would force feed it a pinky mouse or 2 prior to its first shed. It looks like it will need it. If it's big enough force feeding a pinky rat is also an option.
As of now, I would wait and see if it absorbs the yolk.
Best of luck! ----- Best regards,
