My Project

Every year, we hatch and raise chicks in my classroom!

This is a great learning life experience!

It's amazing to see the hatching process through the eyes of my students!

Even though, I have 54 students in my class, every class in my school benefits from this! They all get to come watch the hatching, see the chicks, and so much more!

We will use the stock tank to hold the chicks! We will use the food and water containers to feed/water them! We will use the heat lamp to provide the chickens with the essential heat they need to survive!

It gets expensive, so this will help with funding!
