so I am shipping the chicks that are starting to hatch today. If peachicks take 28-30 days to hatch... and are only ok 3 days for shipping. How long should I give the rest of the chicks to hatch or not hatch before I ship the chicks??? I have the first chick pipped this morning and I know some will prob not hatch.
How long Do I give it before I box and ship the chicks... what about late hatchers??? Or if the others have not pipped within a certain time frame from first pipping do I just say they are goners and collect the ones that are hatched? I’m wanting to ship all that hatch out to one person. How long do I wait from first one pipping before I say hatch is over and still give them time to be shipped? Today is day 29.
I have shipped chickens and goslings before but this is my first peafowl hatch to ship, which have a longer hatch window...
Thnx for your help.
