I had one egg in my incubator which has now hatched. Still wet. Does the chick still need the humidity or should I take out the wet rags? When do I offer food and water? Anything else I should do.
His siblings hatched with the mama hen yesterday. This little guy came from an egg she left out in the cold three days ago. He seems fine, just not sure what to do with him until I can put him in with his mother.
This was my first attempt at hatching. Any advise would be greatly appreciated.
BTW- The incubator/ brooder is a wooden box with a light hanging over it. Very low tech. The bottom is covered with bath towels.
