Do I need to vaccinate a newborn chick after it hatched from a vaccinated hen?

[Girly White Silkie]

I was wondering if I have put vaccine in a newborn chick.

Yes, you do if you wish to prevent / ameliorate the symptoms of specific diseases for which you intend to vaccinate against.

No you don't need to.

Vaccination does not pass down from generation to generation, but you are not required to vaccinate.

What vaccination are you talking about, and have you ever had that particular disease infect your flock?

Only if the hen is vaccinated in the hatchery?

No you don't need to.

Thanks!
