    Thank you so much for your help The stag seems to be improving The seller recommended an injectable antibiotic to be safe So I went to the feed store and all they had was Sulmet Which suppose to help with Coryza, Coccidiosis, Acute fowl Cholera,and Pullorum Disease. Think that will help?

    Thank You for the replies there almost no sneezing like earlier making less conjested noise. They do seem tired but still pretty active. The discharge doesnt smell.I think I'm going to try some baby cold medicine. Is that a bad idea?

    It's alive

    You could feed them hard boiled egg yolk they love it. I add suger to the water too. I heard they can go 24 hrs without feed after they hatch. I try to have feed ready for the as soon as they are out of the bator. Good luck

    Reptipro 5000 Hatch-A-Long (=

    I do have a thermometer in the incubator (Brinsea Spot Check). What I meant is last time I incubated I had it set to 99 and temp would go from 97 to 100. So I thought I would set it at 99 and forget about it this time around but Temp readout was a little diferent this time. I would assume it...
