I've had pretty good luck taping their legs together, evenly spaced of course, but I do like the cup idea....

Alrighty then... :hmm. Just trying to get some more info out of you because you hadn't given any details and I could come up with a million reasons why they died without having any details.... I put mine outside last week and they were 2 weeks old. Lows were in the mid 60s and they did fine...

Okay so 2 out of 3 died. Hmmm. How long have they been outside? What was the lowest temp outside? No blood on any of them? Were they huddled together where they died? Any signs of a predator attack, digging around the walls, feathers everywhere, etc.? Need more info....

I wouldn't recommend giving day old chicks anything other than a starter crumble for food but that's just my opinion. I doubt the cucumber has anything to do with it. Check his butt and make sure poop is not stuck to it. Adding some electrolytes to his water wouldn't hurt but there's a fair...

Hey @Kiki. I hatched some quail last week, not sure if you still wanted to add them to your 2020 list. I ordered 100 jumbo wilds from Myshire. Received 119. Set 118. Had 90 at lockdown. Hatched out 84 quail. 4 were fully formed but didn't hatch, 2 early quitters. Here's an easier breakdown for...
