I placed some eggs into the incubator like usual, but decided to place another batch in 3 days later. It is day 14, and lockdown will happen soon. If I do so, that means I will have to put my 2nd batch into lockdown on like day 12. I’ve read this does not effect them to much in later stages of...
I have a chick who is beyond repair and is has a leg which had a untreatable problem. His leg is swollen and is not getting better with straddle leg treatment and Sav-a-chick. How would I go assisting them find peace? Thanks
I just hatched out a baby quail, named lucky, and am wondering when I can put them with the adults. Can’t wait to see him meet his dad and mom? But when can I do so? Thanks, he is 4-5 weeks old. Adults are a year old. Very chunky, since they get more fat as they age. Thanks for any help, I just...
My coturnix quail eggs have been at the right humidity and temp for the entire time! I calibrated the thermometer before incubation, and the day of lockdown!
my eggs have developed, but I cant see any internal pip. The air cell is the right size, and is tilted slightly.
Should i raise my temp?
Hi I read that chicks hatch in 21 day but can take much longer then that. I was told to wait. I waited till day 75. Any thing i can do to help these guys get out?
I would say its pretty normal for birds to consume failed young, for in the wild all that energy would go to waist, she is using it for the others. The chick pretty much gifted the others with a well fed mom

Is it normal to have no coturnix quail hatching on day 17? This is counting the first...
I am wondering if I could keep my eggs in the egg turners during lockdown, but turning off the egg turner itself. What do you think of this? What are ways you do lockdown?
its navel is just covered in white stuff, it is dry which is good, and is breath fine and being a chick, it just worries me becuase it is just a large bump on its naval, and is white. sorry to say, i cant post pictues on my device
My hatch of coturnix quail was late by 3 day on day 22 we had them hatch, which is probably due to my thermometer failing. I have a chick with a white belly ( navel) which has a bunch of gunk, and dry, and they have a curled toe. Will these both get better? Or is there something I need to do. I...
