One hatched at 9 this morning...

The others are still cooking. How long do I leave the one keet in the incubator before I move it? How long can it go without food and water?

Chicks can go 3 days without food and water. That's why they ship them first thing when they are born. They feed off of yolk stored just before hatching.

I take them out after 24 hours. I think most folks do. Hopefully someone with more experience will chime in.
