Hatching Chickens

Today when we were walking back from swimming we walked past a very excited Room 13. 
They were excited about their chicken hatching!

    
We had no idea of what it looked like until we saw a little baby hatching out of it's egg.
It was very wet and lonely, most people thought they would be born fluffy. It was the first egg to hatch. 
When one egg hatches it tries to wake up the other eggs. 
Room 13 was really excited to have chicks hatching in their class.

 

The eggs are in an incubator to keep them warm. The rest of the eggs will hatch soon. Mrs Jones named the first one Tahi. Do you know why she would have used that name? 

 

What do you know about chickens?

  10. You are lucky to have a real live animal in your classroom. We think that the first chick tries to wake up the others by tapping the eggs with its beak.

    We were wondering where did you get the eggs from?
    What are you going to do with the chicks when they all hatch?
