thanks! but most of them do break the membrane, they just dont break the shell. I suppose my question is why do complete chicks die in the shell?

well, i have been incubating all kinds of eggs for the last 10 years, always using homemade incubators that i built myself, using quality electronic thermostats and thermometers to regulate the correct temperature and i have had a great success over the years hatching a lot of chicken, duck...

well i don't know for sure but i do mine 180°, also, somebody told me the other day that he had turned on these from a quail egg to an ostrich egg without any problems, i also think some of them are adjustable, i never have tried them myself though i wouldn't trust them with something bigger...

i brought them to a vet and he wasnt sure what it was. he told me not to put other birds with them cause if its a parasise they could infect them aswell. he gave me those multyvitamins. the other vitamin E & selinium i decited to give them myself after researching on the internet.

having lots of birds means ordering lots of bags. i live in Cyprus which is an island. buying bags of feed and get them shipped here is very expensive.

i found a video on youtube of a chick having the same spasms as mine do.

they are from 2 different pairs but they all do those spasms. by the way that was 3 days ago. the last two days i stoped feeding 30% protein and changed it to a 25% protein feed. i also stoped feeing bigattini fly maggots and i started adding multyvitamin and vitam E & selinium in their water...

thanks for the reply. a commercial game bird feed would be ideal. but we dont have that here in Cyprus thats why i mix my own feed.

nice article. what is the right ratio between male and female?

the amino acids percentages are very low in my feed . i dont know if its supposed to be like that. i used to feed meal worms to my newborn partridge chicks . they work but i would still lost some chicks.

that's right. thanks for the info! how much do you believe is the right protain percentage? how about around 28% . they say that if its summer and tou feed high protain feed your birds may die. is it true?

thanks for the maths! what is the difference if i mix my ingridients by volume instead of weight?

thanks
