    Troubleshooting NR360

    I know this is post is a few months old- I bought a "broken" nr360 on marketplace.. had this same issue. I tore it down, cleaned it, and tested systematically until I discovered the temperature sensor was the culprit. Once removed the display cleared, showed my humidity, and alarmed that...

    Chick born with twisted (almost 180) leg... help?

    Unfortunately, I feel like it's making itself more evident that this little thing isn't meant for an easy road. I didnt have the heart to let it die in the shell, and wanted to give it a solid week. It's spirit is great- it eats, drinks and hobbles around to the best of its ability. I think you...

    Chick born with twisted (almost 180) leg... help?

    Update... Making an attempt to hobble around. I think the poor thing is doing its best to keep up with the others. I dont really see any hen pecking yet... The little guys leg is showing itself to be deformed- the more it grows, the more evident the deformity is. Fingers crossed for...

    Chick born with twisted (almost 180) leg... help?

    Well, we may have two bad legs... and I was just hyper focused on the one. He's been in the brace/chair for a few hours. I took him out right before this picture. This is the FIRST time he's attempted to stand. Bad leg seems to be supporting him for more of a hop/scoot now as opposed to him...

    Chick born with twisted (almost 180) leg... help?

    It was a modified little giant still air incubator. I added a small fan and did read before hatch to put liner down- i used paper towels. I know we're not out of the woods, and if he were in the nest, likely wouldn't have made it. I was pretty worried that he'd die the last two days because...

    Chick born with twisted (almost 180) leg... help?

    I'm not sure if its a tendon or not. If it is, it's higher up in the "knee" joint. Both legs feel the same when placed in correct position. There is no swelling or redness. The chick attempts to use the leg and there appears to have full motion when in correct position... it just can't seem to...

    I appreciate all and any thoughts! I wish a rubber band or splint could work... I feel awful strapping the poor thing to a piece of foam

    Chick born with twisted (almost 180) leg... help?

    I'm a brand new chicken momma- first ever batch and had 8 out of 9 eggs hatch, and 7 of 8 perfect babies. But that one... pipped fine but couldn't seem to turn to unzip the shell. After HOURS of watching this poor baby try and try to hatch, I decided to help. It was starting to dry and I was...
