Today was a very egg-y / chicken-y day in Room 4. We have so many eggs from our hens that we decided rather than letting them go to waste we would eat them. So with the help of Treena we made scrambled eggs with bacon and fried eggs too. At the same time we emptied out the incubator and put our 7 new babies into the brooder box. We opened all the eggs that didn't hatch and found a lot of fully formed but dead chickens. Next week we'll investigate what might have gone wrong. Also if you check out our chicken blog later in the week you'll get to meet our 7 newest babies.
Eeewww, I loved they way you kids could eat your eggs at the same time as watching those rotten eggs being cracked. Was interesting to see so many fully formed chicks, we'll have to sort that out.....poor babies. Nicky.
