Thread formerly known as Hatch day is today

You can't do anything for them. What did the inside of the shell look like? Were they shrink wrapped? And how long from pip to hatch?

There was nothing left inside the shells. They were starting to shrink wrap thats why I stepped in and opened them up alittle. I got their nostrils out and as soon as I did that, they kicked and pushed and out they came. They pipped sometime between 4:30 and 6:00 this morning. I finally helped them out about 11:00 or so.

the little yellow one is moving all over the place inside the incubator. I am not sure where I am going to put it at . I don't have anything else hatching until next week, closer to Friday. The chickens came a day early. This poor little thing is going to be by its self. Not sure where I am going to keep the little thing for a while. any ideas???

I have a little plastic container I guess I could put it in, but not sure how I am going to keep it warm.

Plus I have to figure out water and food. I knwo the food needs to be watered down into a mash and I have a little waterer I used for the baby ducks.

Oh and I don't normally give mash to the chickens. They usually start eating on day 3 like pros.
