poppy ben grace Posted July 30, 2011 Author Share Posted July 30, 2011 Hi, i now have 2 chicks!! I am a bit worried as they keep knocking into the yet to hatch eggs. Will the eggs be ok? I dont want to open the incubator obviously. How long do i leave them in there if the others havent hatched??? Sorry to be such a worrier!

sjp Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 they do tend to be a bit on the rough side with eggs that haven't yet hatched which is supposed to spur them on to hatch they new hatchling should stay in the 'bator 24 hrs or untill full fluffed up and dry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
