My baby quad finished hatching just this morning. It was about 6am when I took it out of the incubator and placed it in the cage. *Baby was a little plump, like it was retaining water. At 1:30pm I returned home to find dry blood on the side of my white mesh cage up near the top. *Found the little one climbing back up the side near the bottom with its mouth wide open. *I misted for a fee seconds and then retrieved it from the cage. *I noticed that it had a open sore above the rear leg. *Two other babies in the same incloseure and they are fine. Temp at the time I returned home was 68* and humidity was mid 90's. *
My previously baby that looked and felt plump didn't last a day before in started twitching as if it had hypertension, *twisting in weird ways.
