I had baby chicks hatch under our hens two days ago inside the nesting box. They still haven’t gotten out to get food or water. I have been told to leave them be, but I’m worried they can’t get out to get their food and water. Two hens decided to brood in one box and there are about 17 more eggs waiting to be hatched at the same time so there is no room to put food and water in with them. I’ve been told they can jump out when the mama is ready for them to, but I don’t know if they are able. Should I take them out?
