Hi guys, new quail owner over here. We've just recently managed to hatch 5 quails in an incubator (second attempt). One was completely blonde and died 24 hours after hatching and another healthy one seems to be lying in the same "foetal" position. I've posted a photo, I'm worried it's lying down similar to the one that died, is this normal?

Thank you! I was worried because I had one not survive and the position it was in was the same as how my healthy one was starting to sleep so I kept checking on it to make sure it was still alive!
 
Yes.... they always shocking me, either.

I need to knock on the brooder everytime, to get calm again 🙈 😂
