She might be tired from hatching. You will know sooner or later, she should be perfectly fine

I’m sure she’s fine. She’s probably just content now. They peep when they want something usually so she could have just been hungry, thirsty, or cold, etc. and now she’s probably under mom and warm and happy.

Probably just resting!

Ok Enola did peep! But now she’s quiet and I’m guessing sleeping. I love how Amelia kept clicking until she answered then she went silent.
