Chicks can survive 48 hours on their absorbed yolk, but I prefer to move them to the brooder once they're dry and fluffy (and they may eat/drink prior to 48 hours). If you're worried about maintaining humidity when you open the incubator, you can spray warm water into the incubator after removing chicks, being careful not to spray directly on eggs, especially externally pipped eggs.

Definitely do not leave hatchlings in the incubator for 3-4 days after hatch. Best of luck.
