Hi guys,

I have some quails hatched three days ago, moved to brooder yesterday.

I noticed one of them won't stand up and walk like the others, it seems only managed to move or roll like a ball.
His head like bend under and so?

What caused this and how could I help?

Wish I could get some advise here.
Photo and video attached.

Cheers

This appears to be wry neck symptoms
Typical causes are too high humidity, malposition in egg, shrink wrapping, etc
Treatment very rarely works for severe cases
options include: 1) cull immediately
2) attempt treatment and keep until they expire on their own (but shouldn’t be used for breeding if reach maturity)
3) try to address incubator causes prior to hatching again
