This Unit is specifically designed to provide children with a unique
interactive experience where they observe aspects of the life cycle
of a chicken.


Our Chicken hatching program is very simple, so anyone can operate it and enjoy watching
chickens hatch.

How the Chicken Hatching Program works:

We bring to you an incubator which has a clear plastic dome so every step of the hatching
process can be seen with ease, and a brooder box to house the chickens when they hatch.

We set up the incubator for you and supply you with 6 - 8 eggs which have been previously
incubated and are ready to hatch.

We will leave you with some chicken crumbles to feed the hatched chickens.

The incubator will stay with you for a week. If you wish to keep the chickens for an extra
week, this can be arranged.
