Hatch Day!

 Hatch Day

This Morning
Nine eggs.
Seven pipped.
Waiting.

Can you see the cracked egg?

While we were outside before lunch, this strong chick pushed its way out of the egg.
When he hatched, he moved all around the incubator moving the other eggs.

At three, we are still waiting for the other chicks. We can hear them peeping inside the egg, but they need more time.

This is what the children noticed about today's hatch day.
Only one chick has hatched.
The new chick's claw is ginormous.
The new chick is kind of fluffy.
The chicks cheep when they are starting to get out.
They peck holes to get out.
They peck at the air sac at their face.
They pop the air hole so they can get out.

Can't wait to see what the incubator looks like in the morning!

JOY!

"Mommy" left this baby and he is enjoying hearing a story.
