How long should I wait to move a new born to the brooder?

[McGoo]

I've only got one so far and it's all dry and fluffy. It hatched out at about 10 am this morning. Should I wait until 10pm or so?

I've got a little stuffed animal that I'm gonna put in there if there aren't anymore hatchlings to join it. Keep hoping for more.

I heard this little one chirping last night and it hatched out about 12 hours later. Today I heard another one chirping, so I hope that it'll hatch out later tonight.

Any insight? suggestions?

Nervous mother hen.

I usually wait about 24 hours, actually. Then they are dry & fluffy.

Yeah, I always leave them in the incubator until they are dry, then put them in.
