Yesterday was a very exciting day in Year 2 as we finally (after much eager anticipation) received our delivery from the 'Living Eggs' programme. 'Living Eggs' is a scheme that allows children to monitor chicks from their time in their eggs and incubator to when they hatch. We are so pleased our eggs are here!

Emma from 'Living Eggs' explained to use all how we should care for the chicks and things we are allowed to do to make them feel comfortable. They love eating worms, toast and even Weetabix but we have to be careful not to over feed them as they can be quite greedy!
It is hoped the the chicks will start hatching this week, from Wednesday onwards although we are keeping a close eye on any early starters. Once the chicks have hatched and 'fluffed up' we will transfer them to a brooder box where we have to clean, feed and care for our new additions. We also have to name them so suggestions on a piece of paper and return to Year 2 please!
