Our class has started the project on the life cycle of a chicken.
We are going to hatch our very own chicks.
INTRODUCTION
![Page 3: Chick presentation 3](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061210/5490aa1eb4795963488b4e1d/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
HOW IT BEGINS!
The hen lays one egg every day.
![Page 4: Chick presentation 3](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061210/5490aa1eb4795963488b4e1d/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
The egg will turn into a chick after 21 days if…
THE EGG

KEEPING WARM
The eggs are kept warm.Usually the hen sits on the eggs to keep them warm.

INCUBATOR
However we cannot use a hen so we will use an incubator.

WHAT THIS MEANS
An incubator keeps things at the correct temperature. Can you think of anywhere an incubator could be used? Think of little babies.
Our incubator will keep the eggs at the correct temperature for the chicks to grow.

THE INCUBATOR
We have to turn the incubator three times a day to make sure the temperature is even.

If everything goes correctly the chick will hatch from the egg after 21 days.
AFTER 21 DAYS…

THE SHELL
The eggs hard shell protects the baby as it grows.
When the chick is ready to hatch it will peck at the shell with it’s beak until the egg cracks.

HATCHING TIME
Slowly the chick will come out from the egg. This can sometimes take up to a day!
The chick is wet when it hatches from its egg.

The chicks feathers will dry quickly and soon will become nice and fluffy!
FEATHERS

STAYING WARM
The chicks must then be kept very warm for the next few weeks.
We will use an infra-red light to keep them warm.

We will then feed them well and look for a good home to go to.
FEEDING!
