Hi all! I am new to this as I am first timer here. I have researched a ton before doing this and have read as much from this forum as I can. I incubated 10 eggs. At the last candleing all but 3 (which I just couldn't see into due to pigment of egg) were viable. Yesterday was day 19 and the first 3 hatched fairly fast. From then I have 5 more that have also hatched - for total of 8. All 8 are completely dry and very active. The other 2 eggs - one has an air hole and the other I don't see any activity yet. It is just barely coming up on the end of day 21....
My question is should I move the 8 to the brooder and leave the 2 in the incubator? I have read both answers - some say to move them, and others say to leave them and not to worry if they are kicking the other 2 eggs all over the incubator. I just don't want to do anything to cause an issue for the first born.
Again, since it's my first time I am just not sure what is best for them?
