For all who were following the Grade 5 Quail Embryology unit-- 21 baby chicks hatched on Saturday,  June 19th.  We expected them on June 17th, but only mother nature knows a true delivery date. Congratulations, Grade 5.  All healthy, beautiful chicks.  We put them in the barn this afternoon. They were very hungry! Have a nice summer.
