    Cold eggs

    You think? The incubator is back on an up up temp. I really hope your right I’ve had such bad luck with chicken eggs in the past.

    Cold eggs

    I just woke up this morning to find we had a blackout in the night and that the incubator was down to 20deg c when I’m came in again in the morning the eggs were on day 6. I touched the eggs and they are all stone cold 😫 is there any chance they will survive or will they all be dead?

    Quail with split skin next to swollen crop.

    Yeah I gave it water all day and no food and didn’t empty. The crop is firm but not hard can push on it a little. No better this morning either. It must have eaten the bedding 😩 Why are quail babies so stupid, I don’t want to put this one down too.

    Quail with split skin next to swollen crop.

    I had to put it down sadly it started bleeding more and staggering around. But I have a second one with a very large crop too. I’m using wood shavings which I’m wondering if it’s swallowed one. I’m switching to paper towel I think. I’m feeding them a game bird started...

    Quail with split skin next to swollen crop.

    I have a 3-4 day old quail chick that has a massively swollen crop with a rather large split/laceration at the edge of its crop. I came out this morning and this was how it was. Can a swollen crop split a chicks skin? It looks rather miserable, what should I do? Can a large cut mend or is it...

    Turned the incubator off today, had a few eggs that didn’t hatch. My hatch was 28 in total but sadly 1 had died it looks like it’s tummy wasn’t closed up properly or something not sure. It had a shiny patch if wet looking skin on its tummy.
