I went into Treffonen Primary school on Monday 2nd of March with an incubator in which we put 12 eggs, Black Rock x's which should hatch out on Monday 23rd.
The children were really eggs-ited! they got into groups of three and each group adopted an egg. they made a chart so everyone had a turn at turning the eggs three times a day until day 18 when they should be left alone.
This morning at 8.45am there were signs of one chick hatching out so i am now like an expectant parent waiting for a phone call.
The whole school has been talking about the eggs which will hatch into chicks, children, teachers, parents, NTA's there has been a real buzz. It really is so easy to take a little of your farming experience into the classroom, or get them out onto your farm, they care about their future which is in our hands - so feed the children with information - they love it.
