They need rest and warmth. Newly hatched chicks should be left in the incubator for at least 24 hours. They do not need food and as long as the humidity is at 80%within that incubator they will not need water. Chicks should be dry and fluffy before being moved into the brooder box when they will get their first food and water ration.
