Almost a Dozen


They have finished hatching after a marathon session and we have about a dozen of the adorable little ones. As you can see the excitement of coming out of the egg wore them out and they were just napping as hard as they could. Our brown and striped chicks came from eggs supplied by a 4-H member's family. The yellow ones are meat chickens that will be very hardy. We want to thank all the teachers who implemented this curriculum and the students who enjoyed the chicks in their classrooms. Already we have had reports of 60% and better hatched in classrooms and we are so excited for everyone's success. Thank you to all of our second and third grade teachers who made it possible and United Way for supporting us in this hands on science and technology curriculum.
