It's been the most wonderful experience for all of us. I can honestly say I've never been in school so early or worked so late, I can't wait for this time next year! I've been instructed by my children to get a hen house organised for next year so we can keep the next batch! A truly magical experience. Thank you.

We put a shallow pan in the bathtub a few times a week so they can play and splash around in the water while we clean out their brooder. Just make sure it’s something they can get out of and don’t force them to swim. Once they’re fully feathered, give them a pool or a pond. They’ll love you for it! 6. Speaking of Water…

Oh my goodness, what an amazing time the whole school has had hatching the eggs. Thank you so much for offering this opportunity. I cannot recommend this enough to other schools out there.
