    How long does the air in an egg last??

    I can hear some of my broody’s eggs cheeping, does this mean they have broken into the air sac? They have also been tapping a lot in the last 18-24hrs, when should I expect them to hatch?

    Is this good or bad behavior?

    I have 4 chicks that are a month old but the female chick keeps fighting with the male chick and even bullies the smaller female chick as well and this results to where they pull each others feathers off and violently peck each other. What is this behavior and how do I stop it?

    2 week old chick nail is gone

    My two-week-old chick has its right foot nail gone and it was bleeding. I calmed down the blood and I wanted to know if the nail will grow back. Also, if it will affect the chick in any way. Is there anything else I need to do for the chick?
