This is probably silly, but I'll ask anyway!
First time hatching. First chick has successfully hatched but is roughing up all the eggs as she's getting up and around. Is this OK?! I'm just thinking about how I've been carefully placing the eggs so gently this whole time so seeing this happen is giving me a coronary at this late stage!
I don't think I've got the nerve for incubating 😅😅😅

It is normal and encourages the others to hatch. Once you have two hatched and fluffed up you can remove them to the brooder if you want.😊
