My husband called me at work saying one has hatched! How long should I keep em in the incubator it's very lively. And when can I start feeding them?

How is it going with the rest?
You can keep chicks in the incubator for quite a while. I think two days is acceptable. They need to be completely dry.

Doing alright, ( the others are a few days after this blue one as I had written 21 on the other egg meaning this one 17th/18th of last month since I put them in day of collection)
peeps more quietly now but I haven't really seen it eat at least (I usually work 10am to 10pm) so I don't really get a chance to check if often but my husband did say it looks like it's eating because there is food missing and a few little poops(one was kinda tiny and darker colored but the other definitely looked like the chick feed) in the last few hours.(checked around lunch time at 330ish)

Lucky number 7 is doing great (it's a girl) she some feathers grown in and she integrated well with the 2week/almost 3 week olds.
