I just hatched him today from shipped eggs. My incubator is a Brinsea 190 and is working beautifully. All his hatchmates are normal. He will be given a chance to come around, not immediately culled. I'm too curious for that. I was just wondering if anyone had a name for this condition or seen it before. It sounds like Chooks has.

I think I found it! The condition is called "clubbed down".

Here is an article I found.

Maybe, but this is more absent then clumped. We'll see what it looks like it a few days. It seems strong enough. Someone remind me and I'll take more pics.

I will pay for shipping before you decide to cull him if u decide to go that route.
