Answer to Question 1

A

Answer to Question 2

Any bacteria or other contamination can cause disease problems among newly hatched chicks. If any wetness is on the eggs or if moisture is allowed to collect on the surface from sweating, an environment is created that allows bacteria to grow and thrive. In a warm, moist environment, one bacterium can reproduce into two every 20 minutes.
