    I know I didnt want him to be alone but great idea with the stuffed animal! He also has curled toes so I put bandaid on his feet but he cant even walk with them on. Hes sleeping a lot too. Worried about him but have new eggs on their way hopefully hell have some friends in less then a month.

    I had a quail jyst hatch on the 21st day. After about 30 hours I decided to intervene and helped him slowly peel back the shell and he made it out ok. But this morning he is still not able to walk on his own. I have wood shavings and a paper towel over that on the ground.
