New quail chicks

[2-lil-swedes]

I just hatched 100% of my celadon quail chicks for my very first experience! How long can/should the chicks stay in the incubator and when should they start to eat and drink??
Thanks!

Hi there.

They should stay in the bator until hatch is over and they are fluffy... up to 3 days max.

Once moved to the brooder, they will start to peck at things and eating and drinking should follow.

Congrats on your babies!
