HELP!

[chasep]

i have a science fair project almost due!
can anyone think of a project idea involving chickens?
thanks!

Do a project that talks about the embryonical development. Go step by step! Just make sure you do a project that doesn't hurt the chicks at all.

You could do one on what type of food your chickens prefer. Or even a chart of some kind labeling the parts of a chicken and how they produce eggs. Another one could be the benefits of having chickens, what they do for people. I'd better stop. If I think of more I will post. What grade are you in? I teach 4th.

How about the difference in free range and battery hens? Yolk color, caloric content, health, hormones etc...

You could debunk common myths about raising chickens:

You need a rooster to get eggs!

Hens don't crow.

Brown hens lay brown eggs and white hens lay white eggs.

etc...
