My baby quail is weak and won't really eat or drink by himself and both of my quails are picking and scratching their sides near the vent and I don't know what's wrong or what I should do I only have two and I want them too live please help thanks

@Hope Hughes, you have quail. Can you advise?

 

[Hope Hughes]

I'm sorry to hear they are not doing well!

I would try Nutri-drench, straight or in their water so both have it. You need to keep them hydrated to the best of your abilities.

@007Sean may have better information about the situation you are in. He has helped me wi th my quail issues.

Oh no!!

Can try electrolyte water. If you dont have any here is a recipe from online.

I use the stuff from TSC. But alot dont keep it in stock.

This should give them bit of a boost that may get them to eat!

Dont force them to drink it you want them to drink it themselves other wise they could drown.

I would try this recipe because it goes straight to the chick I stead of in the water, but you can still put other electrolyte water down for them so the other can drink it too. I believe it's called save-a-chick..
