Today Debs came to show us what is happening inside our eggs. She brought a special light that shone through the egg shells and showed us what was inside, this is called ‘candling the eggs’. We could see the blood vessels in the egg that told us that the chick was beginning to grow.

We looked at the inside of another egg. Can you remember what the chick would use for food and water while it was growing inside the egg? What were the tiny white string like things we saw for?

Can you remember what we need to do next week to prepare for the chicks hatching on Wednesday?

Debs came today, she told us all about when the chick are inside the egg they feeds on the yoke and drinks the egg white. The string protects the chick inside the egg.
