How many chicks?????

 

[HappyBC]

2 so far! They run around the incubator..bashing into all the other eggs...chirping away....then they collapse into a deep sleep.
is it alright that they are crashing all the other eggs together?

Congrats!!!!!! That is great! You should make sure they are dry and then put them into the brooder. Just so they don't mess up the other eggs' hatching positions. Hope you get other eggs to hatch!

Leave them in the bator. They wont hurt the other eggs. You can leave them in there for up to 48hours after they hatch. You will do more damage opening the bator while the others are trying to hatch,
