I candled my eggs yesterday and 5 out of the 6 have chicks in. I have removed the infertile egg so she's now sat on the 5. The chicks are due for hatching around the 8th sept so I want to ensure Im fully prepared for their arrival, but as a first timer I'm also very anxious, aswell as excited.
Should I use straw as bedding on the floor of their crate/run area, as I believe they will attempt to eat shavings, (I currently have shavings in)
Just looking for any advice from people please on the Do's and Don'ts
