Super Chicken!

[The Mama Chicken]

I had a horrible hatch, only 8 out of 55 hatched. But I did get a super chicken. So darn cute!

What happened with the others?

I think my thermometer was off. They hatched 2 days late, they were sticky, and most just died before hatching. It was just a mess. I need to get a new thermometer before I do another hatch. There are pictures of the rest that hatched on my blog.

to help you with your lone quail chick you might want to raise it with the chickens till it is big enough to take care of itself.

my dh is always sending me chicken or other bird related science stuff of interest. this might be an interesting article to read about quail chick development http://www.physorg.com/news/2011-09-robot-behavioral-quail-chicks.html

Thanks, I have them in the same brooder right now. We might end up buying a couple more quail, to keep that one company. I doubt I can afford a robot for it, lol.
