Quails

Once they get past 3 days old, most all of them will live unless they do something stupid. The hatch rate can vary by quite a bit. If you are hatching your own eggs from your own birds, your hatch rate should be well into the 80-90's percent. We had 7 medium hatches in a row at 100% during the late summer. On shipped eggs, 50% hatch rate is normal. That is if NOTHING goes wrong in the transportation phase.

Ok thanks. One of my chicks (5 days old) died last night.
 
I recently got a quail im new at this but are they suppose to have lumps like butts, my quail has a lump on his back section near the tail is this normal or is my baby getting sick =(

Male quails have a bump under their vent, take a pic so someone could examine it more clearly.

Sorry, for double post.
