    Urgent: hatched chicks knocking into other eggs, is this OK?

    Some say you should open the bator and move the hatched chicks to the brooder, some other believe it's better not to open the bator in order to maintain the humidity. Most websites suggest it's nothing to worry about, they've been turning other eggs. I wanna ask, is there anyone who doesn't...

    Baby chick won't eat and he keeps dozing off

    Update: He didn't make it. I think the problem was not just splayed legs, I guess there was something wrong with his digestive system, he had a hard time getting the food and water from his beak into his whatever you call (belly), like there was a malformation inside. This really hurts, he was a...

    Baby chick won't eat and he keeps dozing off

    I tried to dip his beak into some sugar water, and it seems like he's drinking some when I do it... Anything else I can do? I don't want to lose him knowing there's something I could've done.

    Baby chick won't eat and he keeps dozing off

    Anyone please? Will the sock method work for less than day old baby chick with spraddle legs?

    I don't have any photos right now and I can't seem to take a proper one. I did this in the morning and when I checked it in the afternoon it had got out of the bandage... I did it again, I'll be waiting till tomorrow, how long does it usually take them to fix?

    Anyone please? Will the sock method work for less than day old baby chick with spraddle legs?

    I noticed spraddle legs on one of my chicks last night, but then I thought it was normal since they had hatched just then and were too weak. I thought it'd be gone by the morning but it's still there, I used the sock method, using a very small sock, not too tight to block the veins and not to...

    Is he now breathing the outside air?

    Do Japanese bantams hatch early?

    I have a few silkies and one Japanese bantam in my incubator, it's an small egg, right now is the beginning of day 19 and the Japanese bantam has already piped internally, should I worry about this? Because my silkies haven't piped internally even though some of their eggs are rather small.
