Hatching Eggs

[eggdd]

Seven of my eight eggs have hatched a day early. It's been almost 24 hours. How long can I leave the seven chicks in there? Do I need to adjust the temp?

The eighth eggs has pipped.

They can go 48-72 hours without needing food or water. If the other egg is pipped leave them alone and let it hatch.

Congratulations!

I think it may be too hot for the ones that have hatched. No? Yes?

The first week they should be at about 95-99 degrees. Your bator should be at 99 so they will be fine. It's nerve racking I know.
