When to start hatching chicks
Hatching Chicks and Introducing Chickens into the Brooder
okay let's look inside the incubator and
see if there's any chicks that are ready
to go into the prepare so after the
chicks hatch they are pretty slimy and
we've got one jar here it's got the drop
and drag them and then we're going to
head upstairs and put inside our burgers
so here's our first guy we brought them
up to the brooder Kramer's checking it
out as well we have our heat lamp to
keep the chicks warm a cream about
whatever thermometer at the bottom so
the temperature should be about 95
degrees Fahrenheit 32 degrees Celsius we
have our food tray set up over on the
side and our water with some stones in
it to make sure this little guy doesn't
fall asleep while he's drinking and
drown himself so the first step is when
you bring the chick into the brooder you
need to make sure to dip the chicks beak
into the water so they know where the
water is and how to drink we're just
going to put them down there a little
drink there we go
okay so there is and I think his friends
downstairs are going to be ready to come
up soon okay so here's our second chick
and she's pretty dry nice and warm in
here
so again when you bring them in just
make sure their beak just goes into the
water just for a moment there you go ah
Kramer loves them
