    Hi, as this is my first time hatching I want to make sure I am not making mistakes. I just finished transforming an Ikea box into a brooder and I would like to get some feedback and DIY tips.

    Chick can’t walk

    i have my one and only chick, Franklin. We fixed his curled feet, but he still can’t walk. He may need longer on his right foot though. He seems to be trying to stand straight and walk backwards. Other than that, he’s eat and drinking fine. Is there anything I can do to help him?

    Chick won’t eat

    my little chick, Franklin, is the only survivor of 3 that I hatched. He hatched a couple days ago and had deformed feet. I’m fixing them using the bandaid method. He’ll drink the water I give him, but he won’t eat the food I offer. I tried crushing it a little since the pieces were big.

    Hatch day no chirps

    It’s day 18 for my eggs and I have heard no chirping or noise from them at all. My brother’s girlfriend claims she saw one move. I’m currently playing videos of quail chicks chirping. Is there anything I can do or do I just have to wait it out?

    2.5 Week Old Button Quail Dislocated Leg

    The chick appears to have dislocated its right leg. Perhaps it started out as a splayed leg and something happened from there. I only took in the bird Wednesday from the owner (who bought the quail chick from my friend, the breeder) in order to prevent it from being euthanized. [see attached...

    Chick Leg Issue - Any Way to Fix?

    Hi all, I've got a 6 day old coturnix chick with a hip/knee (?) that sticks up farther than it should on one side and makes him walk funny (see pictures below). He prefers to squat or run balanced on his hocks, but seems to be able to straighten the leg more when he wants to. He hatched from...

My sister picked one up today and was concerned about its beak being pliable, "rough" looking and of dark colouration . I am attaching a picture of the most affected bird, a few of the rest...
