Incubating Quail Eggs! From Hatching to 4 weeks old.
Просмотров 253Год назад
We bought quail eggs online to hatch out in our incubator. We had 23 hatch out of 50 eggs. That is a little under 50%, but not all of the eggs were fertile.

I ordered one dozen Road Island Red eggs from the Hillside Hatchery. They arrived in the mail and this is how it went! It might be more fun to hatch your own, but it won't save you any money. #rhodeislandredchicken #rhodeislandred

We had two broody hens, we thought we would give chicks to them. One of the ladies DID NOT want to accept the little chicks, but thankfully the other one did.
Will a hen accept these chicks???

    Had two from the last hatch that needed help. I left them in the incubator and slowly cracked the shell. I used a small but wide paint brush with soft bristles and kept brushing the membrane with warm water. They both hatched and are now perfectly healthy. Anyone says you should never do this is dead wrong. If I hadn't they would have died. You see a chick having a hard time you help it. Bottom line.

    If you have a stuck chick, be sure to wet your fingers and dab all the dry areas before pulling! You can easily rip the skin.

    First of all, you were SCARED of a chicken. Secondly you just toss the baby chicks unto the hen and watched her as she pecked hard on that one chick. And pecked the few others. Wtf is wrong with u??

    @greaterthanme876 11 месяцев назад

    When possible it is best to let mother hens hatch their own eggs. The chicks and mother hen start bonding even before hatching, and incubated chicks have difficulty becoming mothers when they grow up, they need the voice, comfort and movement that a mother hen provides to develop to their full potential.

    • @donnastormer9652
      @donnastormer9652 7 месяцев назад

      I never let my hens raise their own babies. I keep two Wyandotte sisters that go broody constantly, and I put hybrid, heavy, egg production breeds under them to raise.. those hybrids never go broody but I get 300 to 320 eggs a year from them so they are a profitable breed to have. My Wyatt dots are incredibly content mothers. They don’t care if the babies are not theirs.

    • @greaterthanme876
      @greaterthanme876 7 месяцев назад

      @@donnastormer9652 yes, hens raise each others eggs to chicks very well, I meant that was chicks are better off raised by a mother hen than an incubator/human. As long as a hen lays on them and raises them they will develop to their best potential.

    Do it at night time,please don't throw chicks at the hen . Believe it or not the hen will kill them ,I have seen it with my own hens and the chick she killed was hatched underneath her for the 21 days. I would consider yourself lucky that the hen did not really lose her temper. A tip for the future if you can't reach the hen either find another broody hen or just crawl comando style. Keep up and keep going nothing better than raising chicks to adult chickens .

  • @randygreen007
    @randygreen007 Год назад

    There’s no rhyme or reason why a broody hen will and will not accept the chicks. My broody left her clutch early and I needed to incubate the ones she left. When I reintroduced them she accepted them at first but two days later had scalped them. I see this scenario playing out over and over here with my hens and from others here on YT. I’m thinking they just sense something is wrong with the chicks in that maybe they’re weak or simply not hers. It’s just how it goes sometimes and it’s not usually the human’s fault.
