Hatching Chicks
Prior to Harvest Fest 2010, we incubated some eggs to ensure they would hatch on the day of the tour, October 2. We wanted to show everyone how the chickens hatch. We were very successful and had 3 eggs hatch on the 2nd, 3 on the 3rd, and 1 on the 4th. Below is a sequence of photos showing the stages of a chick emerging from an egg.
