    Question about bad chicks

    Im not concerned with correcting it anymore, just wanted to see what may cause it. 4/50 chicks having it isnt bad enough to switch feed over. I wasted several weeks on the last ones only to end up having to cull anyway, so im not bothering with it anymore.

    We have tried that in the past with no luck.

    Question about bad chicks

    No, the legs are forward, not to the side. Their feet are up by their beak and they lean way forward, almost laying down. Any time you try to set them up they fall back like they cant bend their legs at the hip

    Question about bad chicks

    The past four hatches i have had-theres always one or two that sit way back on their butt with their legs stretched out in front of them. No matter what i try i always end up culling after about a week because they never move, save for flapping and kicking their feet. This hatch has had two so...

    i hate this incubator

    I have the hovabator 1602n. Third hatch is set. Thermometer is accurate. Without touching the stinking thermostat or being in a drafty area it goes 99, 100, 96, 102, 100, 104, 99....its infuriating to have to monitor the stupid thing every hour for 21 days.

    Need help NOW

    They get grit every time i give treats and the brooder temp is whatever my bedroom is at right now (sweaty degrees). They have played outside and are going to the growout pen as soon as i think theyre healthy. Ugli had two more seizures today and Jean-Luke Picard is still kinda droopy.

    Need help NOW

    New question- how long does it take to see results? Before i got it (five stores and three hours later), Ugli, Picard, and one unnamed duck had all seized. Ugli and nameless recovered in about two hours but Picard is still hunched up and lethergic this morning. I've mixed food in the niacin...

    limping

    My aussie/sumatra started limping pretty badly yesterday. Laying down a lot, hopping on one foot, etc. I think bumblefoot. No swelling, no heat, no blemishes, no fractures. I manipulate her leg-no struggling and ROM is fine. Shes eating and drinking just fine and can still outrun me on one leg...

    20 new baby amauracanas, well thats what I was told they were

    Unless you bought from a legit breeder-you likely have EEs. Thats the bad news. Good news:if thats the case, 3 rows on the comb is a boy, 1 row is a girl. Once they feather the boys grt red shoulders
