I bought eggs and had them shipped. I will be ordering from another source to rule out anything I can do,

I just am trying to figure out why they are suddenly dying now after making it 24 to 48 hours.

I was figuring it was a stock issue. I had one that got stuck under the feeder, but I know it was not there when I put the feeder in as the feeder was in the brooder before they hatched. Same with the water.

No clue as I got a mixed batch. I do think I have 1 white as only one is all yellow. Most of them have dark markings.

Yeah, well came in today to 3 more deceased. Was busy as all get out trying to get things set for the next outside project.

Not even sure. Bottled water. 25% protein feed. I did get these eggs off ebay so it could be the breeder or the shipping may have been harder than showed. Not sure they are not right when they hatch and I am down to 10 quail. Those 10 though are eating and drinking. The ones that died seemed to...

I do not cook in the microwave. It is for reheating, warming or melting things. I was never a fan of the microwave except for reheating leftovers at 2 am when I go home from work and everybody else in the house was sound asleep. I would also be the coffee maker fairy cause they always forgot to...

I think it may have been a problem on the breeder's end. Never have had so many critters hatch and just died soon after hatching. Next order will be from a different source to rule out anything I am doing.

34 made it to lockdown. 24 hatched. 8 pipped than died. 2 never pipped. 11 died soon after hatching. I have 13 in the brooder.

Yeah I am busy playing video games to keep me occupied away from the incubators. I have 9 of 12 chickens hatched.

We are up to 3. They are like Popcorn, once one pops the rest start coming. Probably, won;t be done until tomorrow.

Well, my first two have hatched. 32 more to go. I can see some pips in some of the eggs as the pips are in the dark spots.

I could tell which of the 6 children needed a diaper change by smell. I did not have to be in the room with them to know who needed to be changed. Was like hearing one cry while in another room and knowing who it was.

You could be like me and scent sensitive. I can smell better than most people I know. Some smells bother me more than others. Yes right before a hatch the incubator scent changes.

This is just my opinion and you can take it or leave it as you see fit. If the animal can eat, drink, move around and is not showing signs of pain I usually will let nature take its course. As long as you are not planning to breed them I would not worry about putting them down. I would wait and...

I was planning to hay bale and tarp the outside as I do for the bantam chickens with wood shavings on the ground.

Was the Blue and white one from Amazon LOL Husband bought it

there is a ramp up to the hut area. I was thinking of having some in the enclosed part and some below in the run part.

I have a chicken coop that is too small for most of my chickens. Says will hold up to 8 LF but even 4 LF were cranky. Can I use it for the quail or do they need to be off the ground completely?

yeah ok
