Now we have eight chicks! We have four types of chickens: three are Ameraucana, two are Rhode Island Reds, two are Barred Rocks, and we have one black chick whose type is a mystery! The Barred Rock chicks have a little black coloring and one of them is from the chickens in our garden! The Rhode Island Red chicks are going be red from head-to-toe. The Ameraucana are going to have a little bit of every color. The chick from our garden is one week old and the rest are about one week older. We’re going to sell the eggs our chickens lay. Oh! And they are all organic chickens :)
Did you know?
- Roosters fight for territory and for the females who live on the territory.
- Chicks can’t fly! Their wings aren’t strong enough for them to fly so they hover instead.
- Chickens are related to both T-rex and Archaeopteryx dinosaurs!
I had asked one of my Green Pioneer peers, Jasmine, what she thought about having the chicks inside the class and she said, “They are freaking cool! Hallelujah!”
