Well, to me it is. I have 5 of 12 hatched out now. The first one was out at 7 this morning. How long do I let them sit in the bator? What if the others dont hatch untill tommorow? My plan unless someone tells me otherwise here is to remove the 5 that hatched today and place them in the brooder in the morning before i go to work. DW will be here for the rest tomorrow.
They can stay in the incubator for 24-48 hours, but I personally prefer to take them out after they're dry and fluffy. I usually try to remove them when no one else is trying to hatch... if someone is pipping or zipping, I'll wait to remove the older chicks.
