Yes they did and I had 45 others. They were all healthy and hatched for my research project. Hmm..Good to know! We tried to use warm water but that worked to some extent. Hopefully I find a better treatment idea then this lol

I would imagine! There was one study in Central Avian Research Institute (India) that tried all the Vitamins (Vitamin D was not included for some reason) and tested embryonic and post-growth performance. Intrestingly Vitamin-B (and E) did the worst. Vitamin-B caused early embryonic death! I...

Thank you! No the control group was not touched at all. I wanted to simulate all the other hatcheries that don't do inovo and keep them in. By creating a Sham group, I tested to see if stress of handling, not only injection, affected hatch rate. While those are all good things to study...

Thank you! I try my best to not give up (unless they are in pain). But most importantly, he didn't give up on me and was willing to try hard for it :)

Oh I would love to have done that! Unfortunately Intel regulations does not give students that much of a time to do so. (We have a schedule to follow). The inovo professional studies that do look at the injected birds for weeks after do not give the supplement again because the intial substance...

Vitamin D3 is not harmful to consume, cheaper to be used in poultry industries who use INOVO, and the list goes on to use it as an alternative I chose to test this vitamin due to nobody trying it before and because I thought since VD3 increases bone mass, the broiler chickens would be naturally...

Ok. Thought it since hens could recover from prolapse, chicks could. I guess not. It's dying right now, all of the sudden not responding. How do I put it down without decaputation?

You are right! It does say that- however I can't push it back in nor do I have a anesthetic. I will take it to the vet tomorrow then, how much do you think it'll cost?

I've culled frogs and mice because of my cat but oh my, I want to give this guy one more day since he is pretty strong. How can I put him down without decaputation or anything complicated like the carbon chamber?

A chick hatched yesterday with yolk sac still attached. Yolk sac was cut off with string and scissors due to it already being popped. However, pink wormy looking intestines took its place. Look at the picture. I seperated, kept it warm and fed electrolytes. Tried pushing it in earlier but it...
