We purchased some SLW and bred them. We got our first batch that hatched this weekend. There are 6 chicks, all have something not right with them. They all have a crooked toe, and 4 of them have bulging eyes. I thought at first it was just the "ugly stage" of a just hatched chick but they've all fluffed out, and their eyes are still bulging and closed. Any idea what this could be? I am thinking bad genetics?
We hatched out quail successfully earlier, so its not our *first* time with an incubator but we aren't experts by any means lol. We also hatched a Golden Pheasant that hasn't had any issues so I am not sure? The only thing I can think is bad genetics... but I want to check before I cull everything. PLEASE HELP!
