Our big announcement: The chicks have arrived (no, no not in that way - they are still in egg form)
Yesterday was Day One when we used a pencil to mark our initials on all the eggs (not only does it give the kids each an egg, it helps us keep track when we have to start turning them 3 times a day tomorrow) and then gently placed them inside the 98 degree incubator.
All of the supplies we need to hatch chicks:
a candling light, chick feed, a heat lamp, and a box to keep them in :-)
We have become documenting their growth in our journals and some of us even wrote about our excitement later on during Kid Writing time
Katy's story:
"We are doing a new project and it is hatching baby chicks! I got one too! My friends got one too!"
Our chicks should begin hatching on March 26th & 27th
