What do newly hatched chicks do????

This seems like a silly question, but I can't find the answer to it when I googled or searched byc forum.

My first time hatching eggs. My chicks hatched a couple of days early. They walk wobbly, peck on each other, and sleep and sleep and sleep.

Is this normal? What do newly hatched chicks do? Should I worry about the wobbling?

Your chicks sound like normal chicks! As long as they can walk, and it's just wobbly, it's absolutely fine. It takes them several days to get steady on their feet. Good luck

That's a relief. Thanks.
