    Newly hatched chick without eyes

    Hi, I've just hatched a new batch of button quails. I noticed that one had difficulty moving, but its legs were alright. It's eyes still hadn't opened unlike the others, so I gently opened it's eye lid and saw that it didn't have eyes. There wasn't any blood and it didn't seem to be hurting from...

    duckling can’t open eyes or walk!!

    Uh oh newbie mistake with turkey and chicken eggs put in incubator on same date! Help?

    First, after some hatch you are able to take them out, just make sure to add more water. Second, I think it is best to temporarily move the turkey eggs outside with the broody hen during the time when the chicken eggs are estimated to hatch.

    Well the only possibilities I could think of were: 1. They were able to fly out (unlikely) 2. Found an area of wiring that was loose or broken 3. Died of temperature/illness and later being eaten 4. Got preyed on by the pigs

    Canada Goose Goslings

Second, geese only lay during their breeding season (February to April). Yes, there are domestic Canada geese, but most are crossbreeds between Canadians and...
