It’s a great day to be a farmer!
To the OP, I don't necessarily agree that it’s comforting, I kinda went off topic with the hatchery question but it’s odd for me due to this hasn’t happened before. So I apologize If I made It confusing.
We carefully looked at different things.
Are there any drafts coming through?
Are they scared? Cold? Etc.
The corners are killers. You can add pool noodles to the corners to keep them from congregating or any other shape that would block the corners off until maybe they are a little older.
Everyone raises chicks different and has different methods, the above is what helped us the past two times and of course brooder space as mentioned which everyone has different recommendations about that too.
I guess check out all the tips given previously as well!
Losing chicks in a brooder is never fun and super discouraging so I hope that helps.
