They Keep Coming.....


We are having an egg-celent adventure with our embryology project. This morning I came into the office and there were eight more chicks in the incubator with four more getting ready to break out. I moved the chicks to the brooder box (with the three that hatched yesterday) and the 4-H staff is cheering on the soon to be chicks, still in the incubator, through their hatching process.
I spoke with a teacher from Rowland Norment yesterday and they have almost 100% hatched. Also East Robeson called and said every student in her class got to see a chick come out of it's egg. She said they just kept coming and coming and coming. The secretary at Oxendine reported that they were having the best time with the project and they had chicks just about everywhere.
We are looking forward to talking with more teachers today and we will let you know what the other schools are reporting.
