We plan to setup a rota to ensure that the chickens are looked after, including an egg collection rota. The eggs will be sold as a little enterprise project, with the money going towards the cost of feeding and caring for the chickens.<\/p>\n<p>We are running a competition to name our new chickens &#8211; watch this space! Also, if you have any spare egg boxes at home, please send them into the school.
