We Hatched Chickens!!!

We arrived this morning to find nine baby chicks had hatched overnight.

We all had a turn checking them out.

Some of us couldn't tear ourselves away. :-)

We spent a lot of time peeking into the incubator.

And even more time watching the chicks.

Six more hatched throughout the day.

We got to see two of them actually coming out of their shells!

Seeing if any more hatched....the flashlight helps.

Aren't they cute?!

We will keep them until Friday afternoon. Farm animals get very stinky!

The little chicks will return to the farmer who gave us the eggs.

*No animals were harmed in the making of this event. :-)

**It was really hard to do our work!!
