Chickens

Kia ora bloggers 

In the begging of term three we got a incubator with Chicken eggs in it. We got to have them for ten days and there were 9 eggs. We also got a brooder  box for the chicks so they would have space to roam. In the brooder box there is food and water for the chicks for the chicks. On the second day we got are eggs one of the eggs hatched and the chick was a boy not long after that another one of the chicks hatched but this one had something wrong with its leg so it couldn't walk. Only two of are eggs hatched and the other seven died.
