Possible Guinea Eggs in "Quail" Batch?

Date sort Score sort
Still droopy and panting occasionally. She is eating and drinking though... is it worth me trying to strap it up? Will it cause unnecessary stress? I don't think I have handled her as much as the others judging on the behaviour today when I was holding her.

 
i dont think i would wrap it. one quick way to see if its broke but if she is stressed i wouldnt try it. hold her up kinda high with her wings free and drop your hand kinda fast, if her wing is broken she wont flap it, just one. if they both flap they should be fine. how long ago did this happen?
 
ya, i would wait. if she is eating and drinking she should be ok. i dont know much about quail but i figure a bird is a bird when it comes to health.
 
yeah I figure most birds are the same. If the wing is causing pain, wouldn't that in turn cause the stress? I know I'd be pretty freaked out if my arm was broken after someone dropped me

hahah, stop beating yourself up. we have all been there. yes, pain can cause stress, or just the drop but its not going to die from a broken wing which i doubt anyway but stress can kill them fast. make it night time in there. use a blanket or something.
