    Aspen shavings make chicks lethargic?

    An hour ago I decided to change my almost 2 week old chicks’ brooder bedding from paper towel to aspen shavings. I put a half inch layer down and put the chicks in. They started to peck at the shavings which are too big for them to eat. After 10 minutes they all lined up in a circle and started...

    Black spot on quail quick's beak

    I have a few 1 weel and a half old quail chicks. Two are tibetan, two silver and the rest are some sort of brown kind. Three of the 'some sort of brown kind' are developing these dark patches at the base of their beaks. I only noticed it two days ago. They seem to be healthy. Is this some sort...

    Membrane covered chick pipped 14 hours ago with no progress

    Oh, really? I didn’t know that lol. Luckily I only float tested the dead egg, not the one that supposedly is alive. Thanks for telling me though

    Membrane covered chick pipped 14 hours ago with no progress

    Sorry for your loss, it must have been devastating :( So I finished... As soon as i moistened the membrane i knew the chick was long gone. It was stiff and dry. As for the other two eggs, one was still viable so i'm grateful for that.

    Membrane covered chick pipped 14 hours ago with no progress

    Sorry for your loss, it must have been devastating :( My incubator is starting to smell horrible, i'm not sure if its because the chick is dead or because one of the other unpipped eggs is rotten. I have a feeling the chick already passed away though. I am going to take it out and peel the...

    Membrane covered chick pipped 14 hours ago with no progress

    Its been 23 hours... So far no movements or progress whatsoever. I'm losing hope. I think i'm going to open the lid to float test the other unpipped eggs.

    Membrane covered chick pipped 14 hours ago with no progress

    I incubated 11 quail eggs and so far eight hatched. Out of the three remaining eggs only one pipped. That egg first pipped at the same time as chick number eight. After number eight hatched, the egg seemed to be making good progress, except it would crack the shell, just not the membrane. After...

    Pipped eggs wont hatch after I openned incubator

    Thanks for the reply, I have read about the risks of assisting in hatching. Is it true that there is little to no chance of the chick hatching 24 hours after the first pip? I was wondering if it was normal for an egg not to be in action for a few hours after some pips. Its quite obvious but...

    Pipped eggs wont hatch after I openned incubator

    I am hatching a small batch of 11 quail eggs. Today is day 16 and four of them hatched. They were fine in the incubator, pushing around other pipped eggs until one got stuck (its quite complicated). I quickly openned the incubator and got the hatched chicks out safely (yay) and closed it in no...
