I think they'll be fine. Do you have water for them?

At six weeks, they'll be fine for a few hours. You can give them some fruits or veggies to tide them over if you want.

Give them some egg yolk to tide them over, not scraps.

They will probably be ok as long as you make sure they have water. No need to worry.

Make sure they have plenty of fresh, clean water. You could also distract them with a fun dust bath
