Hatching Chicks!
By
Kiara
This
year, Mr. K’s class hatched chicks. Mairin is a student in
Mr. K’s class.
Sophie
brought the eggs to Mairin’s class. She thought the eggs
were really cool. Mairin said, “The eggs were white and kind
of blue.” The first thing Mairin had to do with the chick
eggs was to turn them. Her class put X’s and O’s on the eggs
to flip them. She had to flip the eggs three times a day.
They put the eggs in an incubator. An incubator keeps the
eggs warm. When Mairin’s class candled the eggs, they put
the eggs on something called a candling machine, and she
could see a chick moving and growing inside. Mairin saw a
tiny black dot that she said was a chick. The baby chick
grew in the egg by eating the yolk inside.
Crack!
Peep! It took 26 days for the eggs to hatch. Mairin felt
happy when the eggs hatched. There were coins in the chicks’
food and water so they could see the food and water. “They
eat chicken food,” said Mairin. Mairin’s favorite thing
about hatching chicks was that she liked how they looked.
Mr. K’s
class loved hatching chicks. Mairin learned a lot about
chicks.

they are candling they put an egg on a cylinder and they can
see the chick inside. Ellery could see a black circle inside
the egg. The baby chicks grew by eating yoke and getting
hot.

Every
year Mr.K’s class hatches chicks. Jaylin is a student in
Mr.K’s class.
Sophie
brought the chicks to Mr.K’s class. The eggs looked exciting
when Jaylin first saw them. The eggs were white and brown.
Jaylin said, “The first thing you have to do is put them in
the incubator and put water on them.” Jaylin and her class
put X’s and O’s on them so they know what side to flip them
on. You have to turn them everyday. Mr.K’s class flipped the
eggs until they hatched. An incubator is what keeps them
warm. Candling is when you see if the chicks are growing.
Jaylin could see a spot when she was candling. When the
chicks were in the egg they ate the yolk, so they could
grow.
CHIRP!
PEEP! The chicks are here!! It takes 21 days for the chicks
to hatch. Jaylin thought it was fun watching the chicks
hatch. Jaylin said, “The coins are in the water and food so
the chicks can see their food and water.” The baby chicks
eat the yolk. Jaylin’s favorite thing about the chicks is
the noise.
Jaylin
had a lot of fun hatching the chicks. It was a very fun

This year in Mr.
K’s kindergarten classroom the students got to hatch chicks.
A student named Breanna was in Mr. K’s classroom this year.
“Mr. Zupin and Mr.
Wisneski are some people who gave the class some eggs,” said
Breanna. Breanna was really excited about the eggs. The eggs
were brown and white. The first thing the class did was put
X’s and O’s on the eggs. Breanna said,” the class put X’s
and O’s on the eggs so the class knew what side they had to
put them on to stay warm. Every day the class turned the
eggs. They turned them twice a day. The incubator is like a
machine that keeps the eggs warm. To keep the incubator
warm, they had to put water in it. Candling is when you have
a light that shines in the egg so you can see what is inside
the egg. When Breanna looked in the egg she could see black
dots moving. The chicks grew in the eggs by eating the yoke
inside the egg.
It took 21 days for
the eggs to hatch. CRACK CRACK PEEP PEEP, finally the chick
was out of the egg. Breanna was super excited. Mr. K and the
class put coins in the food and water so the chicks could
see the food and water better. When the chicks started to
eat, they ate chick food. Breanna liked seeing the baby
chicks hatch.
Mr. K’s class had a
great experience hatching eggs. The class enjoyed hatching
chicks.

them the eggs. When Kennedy first saw the eggs she thought
of the chicks. She said that the color of the eggs were just
white. Kennedy said, “The first thing we had to do with the
eggs was look at the black spot in them”. Also, she said
they had to put X’s and O’s on the eggs so they would hatch
quicker. Kennedy said that they also had to put X’s and O’s
on the eggs once everyday. She said the incubator keeps the
eggs warm while the eggs get ready to hatch. Also, Kennedy
said that candling is when you put the eggs over a light to
see a big black spot. Another thing that she said is that
the chicks grew because of the yolk in the eggs. Hatching
eggs is very cool!
It takes
21 days for the eggs to hatch. Kennedy said that she was

Pals

Almost every year
in Mr. K’s kindergarten they hatch baby chicks. Teigan is a
student in Mr. K’s class.
Mr. Zupin brought
the eggs in for the class to hatch. When Teigan first saw
the eggs she thought they were going to be taking care of
them. The colors of the eggs were brown and white. Teigan
said, “The first thing we had to do was put them in the
incubator.” Then they mark them with X’s and O’s so they
know what side to turn them on next. One thing they had to
do everyday was turn the eggs in the incubator to keep them
warm. When the chicks are little they flip them three to
four times a day, but as they get bigger it’s only two times
a day. Also an incubator is a machine that that keeps the
eggs warm and it’s open so you can look at the eggs. What is
candling you ask? Candling is where you get to look inside
the eggs. When Teigan looked inside she could only see the
beak and the head. Also the baby chick grows in the egg by
eating the yolk and then it gets bigger.
CRACK!
The baby chicks are here. It takes them 21 days to hatch.
Also when the eggs hatched Teigan was happy. There are
coins in the chick’s food and water because then they can
see where it is when they’re first born. For what they eat
Teigan said, “They eat baby chick food.” Her favorite part
was watching the baby chick come out of its shell.
Teigan
enjoyed hatching baby chicks. It was a very fun and
educational project.

Every
year in Mr.K’s kindergarten class they hatch eggs. Abaigeal
is in Mr.K’s kindergarten class.
Mr.Zupin
had brought in the baby chick eggs. At first the class got
to hold the eggs and then they had to put X’s and O’s on
them. The eggs were brown and white. After that Abby had
mentioned that after they put the X’s and O’s on them, they
put the eggs in an incubator, which keeps the eggs warm.
Abby said they had to turn the eggs six times a day, but
really just three.
Abby said
that candling is where you see a small thing inside the egg
and after a while it gets big. Abby even knew how the chick
grew inside; it eats the slimy stuff inside of the egg.
“It takes
six days to hatch,” Abby said, but really it takes around 20
to 21 days. She said that they put coins like pennies and
nickels in the food and water so that the baby chicks could
see of the reflection and that way the chicks can eat and
drink. Abby mentioned that when they first hatched, the
chicks were so adorable! Mr.K’s class got to hold them as
soon as they hatched, too. Abby said, “When the eggs
hatched I was so excited, almost like I could hold one
forever!”

happy.” Ellery said that the eggs were brown, white. The

you had to turn the eggs every day and you candle the eggs
once in a wile. You have to turn the eggs one time a day. A
