    help me figure out what I'm doing wrong please

    They hatch out fine and don't look overly wet just normal wet and they just stay that way and when they are done hatching and I take them out they are dry but the down feels stiff and they still look wet. I am only hatching a few at a time so the not rubbing on each other theory might be the issue?

    malpositions

    One was pretty oval I could see it getting confused but the other two were normal egg shape. Just wondering if it's something I did?

    moving into the coop

    Thanks for all the advice. The only safe place in my house for the brooder was the bathroom and there is limited space so can't build a bigger brooder. They will be happy to have some more space to stretch out.

    moving into the coop

    My chicks are a little over four weeks and getting crowded. I'm in Wisconsin and it's still getting down into the 20/30s at night. Can I move them into the coop earlier then six weeks if I provide a heat lamp?
