should I take chicks out of bator?

[slickchick]

I have 4 chicks that have hatched. One of which is going on 24 hours of being in the bator. I have at least 4 other pips in there, and my hatch date is today. should I take the hatched chicks out and put them in the brooder tonight? I haven't opened the bator at all. I'm worried mostly about the oldest one. I"m hoping for more chicks overnight.

I would wait bc of the pips. Chicks could live 48 hrs without eating bc of the yolk they absorbed.

thanks for the reply. I"ll wait until the morning and see if there are any new hatchlings.

I waited...glad I did...woke up to 3 more little ones. Total of 7 now and 3 more pips. I'll leave them in there today as well. Thanks for the help!
