Caring for baby chicks

What to do with hatched chicken
 
 
Post-hatching care for baby chicks:
 
When the eggs have hatched and the chicks are totally out of their shell, remove the vent caps for drying down.

Leave the chicks in the incubator for 24 hours at a temperature of 95ºF.

Caring chicks before setting the brooder
 
Post-hatching care for baby chicks:
 
Chicks no need to drink and eat during the first 24 hours.

After this period of acclimatization you can place them in a brooder or in a special corner in the hen house (homemade brooder).
