Life cycle of a chick
Children in our Nursery class are learning the life cycle of a chick.

Fertilised eggs were delivered on Monday and placed in an incubator.

On Wednesday morning 2 chicks hatched whilst the children watched them chip away at the eggshell and wriggle free. The chicks are very tired and wet at first but soon find their feet and dry into cute fluffy chicks.
