[muans]

most of the time she's walking on her knees? what could be the problem? is it just that she's lazy or have a weak legs??please can anyone help me?

She could have vitamin/protein deficiency. Do you put any additives in their water? What kind of food do you use, and how much protein does it have?

since no quail/gamebird feed around here i feed her chicken starter feed which is high quality though..a add ambiplex vitamins to there water and i just risk the dosage..the dosage is for 100 birds in chick 5ml and i don't understand how to measure that at all

That is odd. It could just be that she is not getting the right amount of food/water due to her condition. Are there a lot of other chicks where s/he is?

Also how big is their waterer? I could maybe help you with the dosage if you send a picture?

okay she's with 2 weeks quail still in the brooder and i am still using a heat bulb inside the broodeeb and the temperature is 90-95f and their waterer is only just around half a teacup i change everyday and add this vitamins 3-4 drops everytime i change the water

That is too hot.
Lower the temp down to 80.

I think the bottle is missing some directions.

Can you take a video of this chick and upload it to YouTube?

Did you hatch it or buy it?
