Science Fair project - Chicks

[Spiderchick]

Hi
Me and my two friends have to do a science fair project. And I NEED help!
So, we have 4 baby chicks and we want to do something on them. But we don't know what! We were thinking of something like seeing 'How Baby Chickens react to differnt types of Music' or 'What senses do Baby Chickens use most' but we don't know! So PLEASE HELP!!!!!
ANY ideas!

Thanks

Greetings from Kansas, spiderchicks, and

! Great to have you with us! Not sure how could could experiment with your chickens. Maybe their reactions to human interaction - experimental group gets handled and talked to and fed treats. Control group gets no human interaction beyond food and water. After a period of time measure time it takes members from both groups to respond to treats given by hand? Good luck to you!

Maybe you could make a chicken maze for them to navigate and see who finds their way out first. It would have to be a simple design or you might be waiting months for them to find their way out.
Some woman on here clicker trained her chicken to do things and it even walked(slowly) an agility course - toned down from dog agility obstacles. It's probably on youtube.

Thanks for all your help! Ive really appreciated it! But actually we didnt do the chicken idea in the end, we did "how different genres of music afects dogs behaviour?" and it was a great success! thank you for all your help though!
