The First Chick

THIS POST IS FROM LAST YEAR'S CHICKS!

On Friday, April 3, Mrs. Shields went to check on the eggs and look what she found - the first chick hatched!


A Chick Embryo's Heartbeat

This is so cool. Watch the center of the video. It is only 7 seconds long so you may have to rewind! You will see a blinking red object - it is the chick's heart at about 5 or 6 days old!

What's Going On Inside?


See this? Pretty cute. But it doesn't start out that way.
Chicks take 21 days to go from this:
to that cute little fuzzy guy.

Follow our blog to see what happens each day inside our eggs.
You won't believe your eyes!
