Hello! My first ever clutch of Green Cheeks recently began hatching! I have 3 babies that are hatched, and 2 eggs left. The older 2 babies are 5 days old, and the 3rd was born today. Any other babies that hatch should arrive in 2+ days. My plan was to remove the eldest 2 babies on Fri. the 20th, and throughout the weekend get them used to handfeeding in general and on 3-4 feedings a day. Or should I remove the first 3 all together? Or is that too late altogether for pulling chicks? My brooder setup is a 10 gal aquarium with a mesh lid, fleece (that i wash w/o chemicals) covering paper towels as bedding, a heating pad underneath 1/2, and covered mostly by a towel or blanket. Does this plan and brooder setup seem appropriate? If there is any problems, please let me know so I can change the plan. Thank you for reading and/or responding!
