I'd appreciate you folks weighing in with your opinion on an issue I have right now.

My first incubation of the year is just finishing day 23, and I just removed a chick from its shell as it was not progressing at all. Its sac is fully absorbed and it looks perfectly normal, but of course its not fully standing and is still a bit messy. So I don't want to put it out into my brooder yet, but I'd plan to set fresh eggs in an hour.



So I'm thinking to just leave the little chick in with the new eggs for another 24 hours till he's a bit more acclimated to life outside an egg shell.

Good idea, or bad idea. I really don't have another alternative other than to keep him in a box at 70F.

I see cc helped you!! hope they are all doing well!

This is not my picture but these are what I made. I already have a 5 gallon one and love it. So made some in different sizes for the smaller coops.

Salt calibrated (it is showing 38..9C) and 2 alcohol thermometer that I have calibrated in ice and boiling water one is showing 37.5-37.8C the other 37C-37.3C!
