Hi all, I'm new to this so apologies in advance for any silly questions. So I'm on day 20 of incubating bantam eggs. One chick hatched at 9.30pm yesterday and another at approx 4am today, both are doing well and looking fluffy. I have 4 other eggs that are externally pipped and 4 doing nothing as yet. Should I leave the two hatched chicks in the incubator and wait for the others or move them to the brooder? I have a comfort heat plate already warmed for them. Also should the chicks back be able to rest on the heat plate? It seems hot to me. Sorry for so many questions. Hope someone can help x
