Feathers stuck to back

[Beccichka]

I thought maybe my chicks backs weren't drying, but I think it is egg residue. Should we rinse them and put them back in the incubator to dry before moving them to the brooder?

Warm, wet rag.

If you use a wet rag, put them back into the incubator to dry.
I just use a dry toothbrush to gently loosen the stuck stuff.
