Hi guys, Just wondering if anybody can tell me what colour this day old chick is? There are two & i have never seen them before. Thanks :)

Hi i have a reasonably sized enclosure with 4 japs, 1 rooster 3 girls. Can kings co exist in there aswell? My rooster is quite gentle, thats why i was interested to see of anybody had done this successfully?

I have been trying so hard too, but nobody has any. I have someone putting eggs in incubator but still that 3 week age gap.

Hi, i have a 3 day old jap quail chick, texas a&m. Everytime it wakes up, it starts chirping so loudly. My question, are female chicks noisy? Because i remember this ones dad was noisy, & i am hoping its a girl. (Unfortunately only one egg hatched) Thanks guys

Hi everyone, i have just had my first ever quail hatch. A little coturnix. A gorgeous little white fellow. He hatched day 19. There is one other egg in the bator that i know from candling was always a very active chick, moved around alot and was the first one i knew to be fertile. Yet that chick...

Thankyou for all your help. I hope to have better luck with the next batch :)

Thankyou very much. Will do!

I appreciate everybodies feedback. After opening incubator and i could smell a rotten smell coming from egg with hole in it. I broke egg open as clearly it was dead and this is what i found. Any insights? Perfectly formed chick, lots of black liquid, no yolk and airsac no holes.

I will candle pointy ends too see, but i cant see any movement. I will have a closer look tonight. Will chick still make it with hole in egg? If he is still alive in there

No movement that i can see, still have not put hole in second egg either

Well yes there is veins in both! Red blood veins

Okay. Will update shortly!
