Wexham Primary Chicks

Last week, we welcomed 10 eggs to Wexham Primary. Over the course of the week, one by one the cutest little chicks began to hatch. We have been documenting their journey of life on Twitter, so be sure to check out our twitter page for daily updates. 

9/10 beautiful little chicks hatched safely and are now happily developing and growing together. Here are some fun facts that you may or may not know...

• Chickens form strong friendships, recognising over 100 individual faces both of other chickens as well as humans.
• Chickens can see a broader range of colours than humans. 
• Female baby chickens are called pullets while males are called cockerels.
