We had a hen go broody, Gathering eggs for some time and then sitting on them. One has hatched, 3 days ago. I know that she, the baby, needs food and water now so I moved the chick and the mom to our Nursery. Two of the eggs burst, so I discarded them and took the rest inside to the incubator. How do I know which are viable, and how long to keep them in the incubator? Does the float test tell all, even if they are not necessarily late hatchlings?
