Chicks at LIS!

Quiver Farms brought us twelve fertilized eggs and an incubator on January 22. On January 28, Egg #11 was the first to hatch. Sadly, Egg #10 never hatched. Via the live "chick cam" in the library, students were able to see and hear eleven energetic chicks on their classroom tv sets.

Before the chicks returned to the farm on Friday, February 1, they went on a field trip to some of our classrooms.
