Chicken Update

When we arrived in school this morning, we were delighted and surprised to discover that we now have…9 chicks.
We have 1 egg left to hatch which is moving around quite a lot and already has a small crack on it. Fingers crossed it hatches today!!

Moved to our new home!

The first 5 chicks have hatched and they have now been moved into the incubator. We are loving our new additions. All pupils in the nursery and school had a chance to go into today and their teachers will continue taking them for visits while we have the chicks here. There are still five eggs that haven’t hatched yet. We may be lucky and see some more chicks tomorrow.

New Addition

We have a chick!! Overnight 1 of our eggs has hatched and we have our first chick. We think it may be a boy as it looks quite yellow underneath but we will need to wait until it fully dries to see. It is patiently chirping and tapping the other eggs to find itself a friend. Photos to follow.
