Eggs are hatching throughout Moorabool Shire – not only on the farm, but also in the library!<\/p>\n

A live hatching was held at the Lerderderg Library in Bacchus Marsh from Tuesday April 4, with the final chick emerging on Friday (April 7).<\/p>\n

Staff member, Sam said the live hatching was part of a school holiday project, which allowed children to view the chicks hatching from their eggs during the first week, and meet them and learn about them during the second week.<\/p>\n

The chicks were kept inside a brooder box complete with a heat light, bedding, feed and a waterer.<\/p>\n

The school holiday project aims to teach children more about life cycle, as they visit the journey from the egg to the chicken.<\/p>\n
