Hi all, I need quick advice about some chicks I have hatching, I have them in a bator and was wondering if I
1 - move the hatched ones to another bator while the rest hatch
2 - leave them where they are
3 - put them straight in the brooder box as they hatch and dry
The first one hatched about 14 hrs ago
Any advice would be greatly appreciated

you can leave them in the incubator for a couple of days they can feed on the yolk...however I do take mine out and dip there beaks in water that has probiotics and electrolytes...but this is after they dry off and fluff up a bit...I would also have papertowel down and food sprinkled all over it for the birds to learn what food is...if you don't have any of the probiotics you can put some sugar and water and dissolve it and this will do for now...gets them a little spunk right off the bat...










hope this helps
 
X2 the above. I take mine out of the incubator and put them in a brooder as soon as they are dry.
