How do Chicks Sleep At Night ?

[DrRob]

Cheers Everyone, Well I woke up a little earlier than normal and they were snuggled up together within the ring of the lamp, being new to breeding it is always a worry on the first night, have I done everything right ? Is it too hot / too cold ?
I am sure I will be the same tonight ! lol

Thank you for your comments it was really helpful.

My Next 4 are due to pip over the weekend so more fret and worry !

They sleep whenever the mood hits them. Especially the first week, they'll be up running around and then BAM it looks like they all just fell over dead!

They're babies, they just fall over asleep whenever the mood strikes them. In the feed and water dishes too! Which is why you may want to put marbles in the water dish for the first week so they don't drown in it.
