RE: Oh Good! More Hatched! - Baby Chick Update
I don’t know if that’s a for-sure true statement or not. I helped one last hatch and it had to be culled immediately.
Everyone hatched on Sunday and Monday and these guys were rocking around still on Wednesday. It was either let them starve and dehydrate to death in their egg or give them a chance. They can survive three days on the yolk they absorb before hatch, well that’s true for chickens, a little less time, I’ve read, for quail. Haha they’ve fixed their own feet so, they showed me a lot of promise.
They were showing so much vigor, I couldn’t let them just die in their eggs.
