    Silkies/Weird Air Sacks

    I put unscented candle wax over the cracks and put it back in the incubator for now. The chick is still alive.

    Silkies/Weird Air Sacks

    Here are 8, one of them sadly fell over and cracked at the top. I don’t exactly know what to do all I know is it definitely hit a vain as it’s bleeding a lot. So far I’ve tried dabbing the spot lightly to try and stop the bleeding. I put it back in the incubator with a paper towel. Is the chick...

    Silkies/Weird Air Sacks

    Yep. I’ll check back tomorrow. Since I have 9 eggs, would you suggest pictures of each or just 3 random eggs?

    Silkies/Weird Air Sacks

    Okay, thanks! Do you suggest for me to wait until the 16th day or should I follow a normal chickens and do the 18th?

    Silkies/Weird Air Sacks

    Hello! I’m new to incubating chickens. I’ve only ever incubated quails once. However, my silkies eggs are on day 14. I heard that with silkies it was best to put them in to lockdown earlier. I planned to put them in on day 15 (tomorrow.) But when I was candeling them today I noticed how their...

    Hurt Quail

    I don’t but I do have cornstarch. It’s directly on his toe though, so I don’t know how well to wrap it around him.

    Hurt Quail

    Over the weekend I went out of town. When I came back I saw my quail had a hurt toe. He was bleeding and I didn’t know how to stop it. I took him out of his cage and brough him inside to clean his toe up. I thought that was enough but this morning I went out to it still bleeding. Any advice?

    Quail and hiding?

    Okay thank you! I currently put a tarp around his cage to shield him from the coldness a bit. Hopefully that works for something.

    Quail and hiding?

    Hi. As some of you may know I only have one male quail left. In his house he has a small second story room. Today I went out around ten minutes ago and it was pretty chilly but even in the cold whether he rarely goes up there. It surprised me because when he heard me he didn’t come down either...

    Wind pressure?

    Alright so I thought about it and I’m going to end up moving him to the second floor and blocking it so he can’t get down so that the wind doesn’t get him. I’m thinking to start doing that every night also just to be safe. It’s easier that way because it’s more closed off and I don’t have to...

    Wind pressure?

    So I had made a whole little box inside of his cage..but he doesn’t seem to understand what it is. I even put some food there. I was able to kind of push him in a bit and he ate some of the food but he doesn’t seem to like the box or really interact with it. Should I keep it for now or take it...
