Sorry for the delay in posted pictures. I wanted to try and post them individually so there was a post # to label the pics with but I wasn't able to see the tiny pictures on my phone. So I had to switch to my computer.
May 15th and 16th a teacher friend of my wife's hatched a bunch of chicks with her young students.

Will be watching this post to see everyone's comments...
