This was a PM which I am posting for breeders so she can get some help.
I know it was a PM but nothing personal so Im sure 'lokeaviaries' doesnt mind me making this public, she just want some answers.
PM was as follows:
I have a blue pair that are killers as soon as my babies hatch from the egg so I have to feed from day one. My problem is I can't find someone that can give me accurate brooding temps from day one on. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I would assume they have to be stay brooded a little longer at a higher temp since they don't have down?
Brooding temps...

oooh oooh.. brb
I cant find a damn thing in my house..
This is on the back of the Passwell Hand Rearing Food Packet and is what I used when I raised Chibi from an eggie..
These are all in *C I've lost my little paper with the *F conversion lemme see if I can find one online
Day 1 --> 35-37c --- 95-98F
Day 2 to 5 --> 33-36c --- 91-95F
Day 6 to 10 --> 31-33c --- 87-91F
Day 11 to 15 --> 29-31c --- 84-87F
Day 16 to 20 --> 27-30c --- 80-86F
After day 20 --> 25-27c --- 77-80F
From an eggie they need spark, the rehydrating thinggie. The formula is mostly liquid. It says this
Feeding chicks from newly hatched The first feed of the day for three days should be a quality yoghurt with a high live organism count.
