What do I do?

[ktkid]

OK so I have one chick that hatched on day 21. It is now day 23 and there are 4 more still in there, when I put them in there on day 18 they were all moving and squirming around. Do you think I should candle them tonight to look for movement? I am really worried. PLEASE HELP!

Candle them to see if they pipped internally and hold them against your ear and tap them. if there's a live chick in there it will respond by squirming or tapping back. If they are still alive and can't get out have a look here for a guide on how to help:
