    Sick baby quail not doing well.

    Pale comb & face. Losing feathers.

    I did look today and didn’t see anything. I will try and look again tomorrow. But I was thinking mites too but my other chickens are all fine besides her. Maybe I should look for mites on all of them tomorrow in case I missed something or didn’t look well enough
