Markus’ family have an incubator at their house. Mrs Gayle gave them some fertilized eggs and they hatched them out. We learn about the process via photos.
They set the temperature at 37.5 degrees celcius and the eggs stayed there for 21 days.
One egg started to hatch. The chickens use their beak to peck through the egg shell.
A chicken is hatched.
Markus brought the chickens to Pre School. Lilly had a lovely play with her chicken. She used her ‘magpie catcher’ for the chicken house!
Chickens never go out of fashion! They just get bigger and start to lay eggs – yum.
