These two quail hatched the same day, they’re over a week old and the little one doesn’t seem to be growing. Seems to be doing well overall, eating, drinking, alert... just not growing. Any suggestions?
Hi everyone!
Long story coming up; Our neighborhood has a lot of Gamble’s quail and during 4th of July we believe that the parents abandoned their nest right in my neighborhood. A couple of the babies were dead; not sure what happened to them and then there were a couple that were alive. The...
My jumbo quail started zipping at 10am today and seemed to do alright until near 12 this afternoon, it’s trying to zip but it’s beak is hanging out and unable to continue zipping. If it’s beak was pushed in maybe I could continue but right now it can’t turn. It’s chirping a lot and I don’t...
One of my new quail chicks was born a runt and had trouble walking. I worked out that is was due to a vitamin b12 deficiency. I separated him from the others so that he wouldn't be knocked over and gave him the extra vitamins he needed. Over the week since he hatched hes been slowly getting...
Hello, I’m hatching 13 quail eggs and I noticed that one of the chicks that externally popped today is now gasping within the egg. I can see it through the hole it’s broken but I don’t think it’s normal. Does this mean it’s dying or is it a humidity problem? It’s day 17 for the quails and I have...
I have about 20 one week old Jumbo Coturnix Quail Chicks and about a dozen more will hatch hopefully in the next day or so. I was wondering if its okay to have them in the same brooder box.
I hatched 2 chicks 2 days ago (first time) and one is really healthy and eating and drinking loads. The other one is a bit smaller and skinnier... this morning she was under the brooder with her eyes closed so I got her out and every time she walks she kind of flops and then stands still and...
So I’m having a hard time finding info on this. I am raising my first quails (like first hatch ever) and I sadly only have one healthy successful quail chick, I want to get some more chicks but the breeder will not have them ready for pick up until the 1st. This means my quail chick will be 1...

Hello,
I am new to this forum but I have been reading posts and threads for ages. I've been keeping quails since December last year. I thought it would be good to join to get advice and share my experiences.
So recently one of my japanese quails went broody and hatched 10 chicks. Around the...
recently I have gotten into incubating and hatching chicks, specifically quail chicks. I experienced splayed leg in multiple chicks because or many different reasons. I tried many methods such as the bandaid method with no success. I eventually found THE QUICKEST AND EASIEST WAY TO FIX SPLAYED...
one of my quail had problems hatching and has needed a lot of care I thought it was going to die several times. it is now 3 weeks old but very small compared with the others. It has been doing well but this morning I found it laying on its side sleeping. I had trouble waking it but finally it...
one of my chicks has an air bubble on its neck. The skin is pretty thin and it’s kinda yellow if you look through it, kinda like it’s food. I thought of puncturing it but if it’s the crop that would be bad. Also, it’s chest skin is pretty thin and it has been opening its mouth kinda as if it was...
My week old bobwhite is constipated so much that her colon is sticking out. She tries to poop, but its painful for her and nothing comes out. What can I do to help her?
Earlier this season my sisters cat tore down several nests and found 2 eggs, but lost them since had no idea about hatching.
So in prep for next year just in case wanted to learn how to hatch and practiced on a carton of 12 quail eggs from grocery store. After proper technique followed by...
Hi guys! After my last failure of an incubation, we decided we would go ahead and buy some day old chicks of a fairly local breeder.
But the thing is, they live about 20 minutes away and my dad was concerned about this:
Would the chicks be alright in a 22C car for 30 minutes on the ride home...
