Hatching eggs in my class!

[mycutekitties]

I'm a Head Start teacher and we are hatching eggs in our class. The kids are LOVING this project. I candeled the eggs on day 10 and the kids said they were "dancing in the egg".

We are due to hatch Wednesday. (This pic was last week).

What will you do with the chickens when you are done?

I was wondering that too.
That is great. I have some parents come over with their kids who they are homeschooling and do classes on hatching. I have hatches weekly. The kids just love it. I also provide chicks for kids in FFA and 4H. I do ask for photos of their progress.

One of the parents has a small farm and they want them. Otherwise I would just keep them (they are my eggs).

You have a sign that say's "it takes 21 days for a chicken egg to incubate". Give yourself up to 5 days after the 21st day, sometime you do get some slow pokers. But nice job if you are seeing movements, I always say "my chicks are swimming"... Becare it becomes an addicting project.. LOL...
