➡ Quail Hatch Along🥚

[Pyxis]

A freshly hatched Lavender:

It was backwards in the egg so its toes are little wonky, which is why it has shoes.

I hooked up the plate and have had the 250 lamp going for 24+ hours and got all 14 moved to the shed. they do okay out there.

well that didn’t take long....babies in the shed for approximately 1 hour and my little runt was almost dead when I just went out.....i threw him in the incubator to see if he recovers or is too far gone.

I went to Petco to get a new light so I could keep my sex links and snowies separate (I can never go back there, but that’s a different story). When I came home, one of the chicks was nearly dead, next to the food dish, only hours old. I rubbed it up, and put it back in the bator and it died anyway. Sometimes they are determined to die. He was like a centimeter outside of the heat plate, looked like he just fell asleep outside and died. Last hatch I had one do that in the brooder with a bulb, he literally rolled on the rocks in the pasta lid with water, and then laid in the coolest corner of the brooder. I used bumpy uncomfortable rocks purposely to make them an uninviting place to lay down.

He was better so I set up my xtra small brooder and put him and the other runt back in the house

I think that girl I put down was the one that just started laying again cause now I’ve gone back to no eggs again
