I am incubating eggs for the first time. I am on day 12, so I have a few more days until we have new chicks. The question I have is, how long do I leave the chick in the bator before I put it out in my hatchery box?
Being new to this, I only have 8 eggs in the bator. But the problem is, I set eggs on 3 different days. At first, my chickens wasn't laying a bunch of eggs. I set 2 eggs on the 15th, 5 eggs on the 21st, and 1 egg on the 22nd. They are all veining, so I don't want to remove them from the bator.
What would be the best way to take care of the new born chicks? I know that they have to dry first, but my incubator doesn't have any air circulation and I don't want to starve the chicks for any air.
