Hey everyone,
I just hatched 3 silkie chicks. One hatched day 19, two hatched day 20, and now it is day 21 and there is one egg that's pipped and is about to hatch. It will probably hatch tonight or tomorrow. Can the chicks who hatched on day 19 and 20 survive with ought food for so long? Some websites say 3 days and some say 24 hours. I don't know what to do and I don't want to take the hatched chicks out and risk the pipped egg from shrink wrapping. I would really appreciate any responses.
Thanks
