Great animation of the developing chick embryo. Recommended
Virtual egg development
The Virtual Chicken project was funded by a USDA Higher Education Challenge Grant. Virtual chicken provides teaching and learning resources that include a video showing the formation of an egg in a hen, slide presentations and hands on experiments for educators.
The Chickens Anatomy
Very well done interactive look at the chickens anatomy.
"Beginning of Life" Leaders Manual for Avian Embryology
PDF, 6.3 MB
A PDF copy of the leaders manual Phillip Clauer developed while at Virginia Tech. Contains a good bit of useful content material for the teacher.
4-H Virginia Virtual Farm
Brings the farm to the classroom. Visit a commercial breeding farm and Hatchery and let the youth enjoy this interactive learning tool.
Incubation and Embryology
Designed by University of Illinois Extension to provide elementary and high school teachers with knowledge of the chicken's egg, its importance to man, and its role in reproduction of the species. Suggestions on how to use classroom incubation and embryonic development projects to enhance programs in science, language arts, mathematics, social studies, and art will be offered. Very good information, nicely presented.
Chickscope
University of Illinois Urbana Champaign has some good material on embryology in the classroom and building your own incubators. Well put together site with good information.
Anatomy Images from Purdue University
Egg structure, Embryo Anatomy, and Oviduct Anatomy
Morphing Embryos
Time-lapse sequences of the growing embryos by PBS
Egg Candling and Break Out Analysis for Hatchery Quality Assurance and Analysis of Poor Hatches
Well done fact sheet with plenty of graphics and help troubleshooting a hatching problem. University of California, Davis.

Quote: I see!!!! so they are turds!! ha ha ha
Yes, I must confess that if there are any Marans I can purchase when I am buying other eggs those would be for my own flock so I may risk about three.I have heard the Marans are hard to hatch and the dark eggs are hard to candle which you might consider if the kids want to see anything.
