Chicks hatch May 23


After 21 days of incubation, our chicks hatched while many students watched. During the past three weeks, we candled eggs and observed the growing embryos, blood vessels, shrinking yolks, and air cells. Students kept a journal of the changes. We will weigh the chicks, name them and write birth announcements shortly!
