Newly Hatched Chicks

Congratulations! I’m so happy to hear that your chicks are doing well. 😊 If you have any photos of the chicks and flock, we’d love to see them! 🥰

Definitely candle the remaining eggs, when you believe they’re finished sitting. Congratulations! 🙂 I’ve had a few girls leave the nest to tend to hatchlings, while they had a few eggs left that were a little behind in incubation. I finished their hatches in the incubator.
What do you mean by candle. I’m ignorant of a lot of poultry talk. I could also google it but it defeats the purpose of being social. Thanks!

Always feel free to ask questions. We learn so much from each other.
“Candling” is when you shine a bright light into an egg to check for fertility, development, and flaws. Many incubators have a built-in candler, or you can use a bright flashlight in a darkened room. I hope this helped. 😊
