This is the first time that I have used an automatic egg turner when incubating eggs. Mother hens turn their eggs several times each day to keep the yolk from sticking to one side.
We are learning all about chickens and eggs this week in Shared Reading. We learned from our research that it takes 21 days for eggs to hatch. That means that on April 21 or 22 we should have chicks!
We found a great website that shows us exactly what is happening in our eggs each day.
