A close encounter

Week 7, Friday morning, we had an encounter with a 'Silkie' hen and a 'Australorp' chick.

Mrs Johns group have been learning about chicks and their life cycle and Tamalie and Abdullah wanted to share their learning with us. Their life cycle starts off as an egg and then becomes a chick. It takes 21 days for a chick to hatch. Once a chick has hatched, it grows into a hen or a rooster. The hens lay eggs and this begins the cycle over again.


It was great to have them visit us and share their learning.
