 | On Wednesday afternoon there was great excitement in the classrooms as the first egg began to crack. If we sat really quietly we could even hear the chick cheeping. |
|
 | After about ten minutes the crack widened and the chick began to appear. |
|
 | Nearly there! |
|
 | Out at last! Looks like another one is on the way. |
|
"Phew, it's hard work being born! Only one hour old and I'm worn out already!" |  |
|
 | After a few hours the chicks were ready to be transferred to the brooder. |
