Hi,
I'm sure this is a stupid question, but is it normal for chicks to peck at each other while hatching? Last hatch the first chick to hatch pecked at the other eggs while they were pipping/zipping, and then after they hatched. The chicks that were pecked made noises like they were hurt. I eventually removed the first chick when the ones that were pipped hatched and I had no other eggs pipped. What advice can ya'll give me for my next hatch? I am on day 20.
