# Chick, chick, chick, chick chicken

### Last week we had a very special delivery. 7 eggs arrived in foundation stage. We watched and watched then finally on Wednesday morning we saw a little crack and at 9:05 we had our first chick which was quickly named 'Flash'. Later that afternoon we had our second little crack and saw the birth of 'Fluffy'. That evening the third chick was born and we called him 'Gismo'.

### The children have enjoyed watching the chicks and they even had chance to hold them.
