My eggs hatched! Now what?

[Mrs Sugarbear]

I had 6 of my 40 Chukar eggs hatch today. I have them in a rubbermaid with a brooding light, some light bedding, and some water with marbles in it. I'm not sure what to feed them... what can I use until Cal Ranch opens tomorrow?

Great, I was wondering if they would need to eat right away or not. Thank you!

As far as I know, as long as you dont see any yolk left, that means they absorbed it all, and should be good for up to 24 hours, although some may say closer to 16 hours. If you do see some yolk left, give them some sugar water in a syringe to give them some energy.
