A chick needs a source of nutrition for it to grow in the egg, which can be gleaned from the yolk. Once the chick has absorbed the yolk into the abdomen, it uses its beak to start pecking at the inside of the egg to break it open so it can be hatched.

Can you leave a chick in an incubator with unhatched eggs even if the eggs are getting kicked around can the new chick stay there he kicked them all around will thst kill em?

The chicks should all stay in the incubator until the hatch is complete and the chicks are fluffy and dry. They should all be moved to the brooder box at the same time. The chicks will roll the peeping eggs and that is ok. Sometimes the movement of the completed chicks will get the emerging chicks to begin and that is a good thing. Do not be hasty in removing the newly hatched chicks from the incubator, they can and should remain in there for up to 24 hrs.
