This resource will allow us to safely and properly care for our chicks while integrating hands-on agricultural learning into our program.\r\n\r\nStudents will use the brooder daily to monitor temperature, maintain clean bedding, check feed and water levels, and observe chick development. They will rotate responsibilities and record growth, behavior, and environmental conditions. Through these tasks, students will practice accountability, consistency, and data collection.\r\n\r\nWhen the brooder is set up and the chicks arrive, students will review care requirements, safety procedures, and proper handling techniques. They will learn how maintaining the correct environment directly impacts animal health and development.\r\n\r\nAs the project continues, students will study basic animal husbandry, calculate feed and supply costs, and plan for the transition from brooder to coop. This project will connect to lessons on agriculture, sustainability, and career pathways related to farming and skilled trades.\r\n\r\nYour donation will provide a safe, structured learning experience that supports responsibility and real-world skill development.
