A
couple of days before the chick hatches, you
can here cheeps coming out of the egg. The
hen waits, excited to see her new baby.
The day comes for the chick to start
hatching. It’s a very hard job for the
chick. It first has to peck a line down the
center of the egg. Then, the chick has to
peck through that line even harder and then
actually get out of the egg. It can take up
to 14 hours for this process.
The chick comes out wet. After a couple of
hours, the fluffy, yellow coat will dry.
Once the chick is out of its egg, it waits
for its siblings. All the chicks take a
really long nap when they are all together.
They don’t get too hungry because they still
have some food left in them from when they
were in the egg.
When the chicks finally wake up, they start
exploring and getting some food.
