We weren’t sure what was inside it but we knew it was too big to be left over from the chickens. We decided that the shell was too hard to hatch on its own. To soften it up, we put it into water where it bubbled and then sunk! We will keep a close eye on it and see what happens.

2 years ago Posted on 06th May 2022 by Mrs Croft Goodbye to our friends We have had a bittersweet moment in Reception today as we said goodbye to our chicks. We have loved watching them hatch and grow and have learnt a lot about how to care for young animals. However we have talked about how it is now time for them to go to a better home where they will have space to roam and learn to fly.
