Hatch Day

Last Monday we woke to the sound of muffled cheeping. It was "hatch day", which, even for the kids, comes in as a very close second to christmas day!  
We know of-course that we're going to get baby chicks and not chocolate kinder surprises out of the eggs but it's a miracle to watch the tiny little chicks break their way out.
From the 10 eggs that went into the incubator we got 10 strong little baby chicks.
Elliott has decided that one of them is called Geoffrey. We don't know which one is Geoffrey because they all look the same. 
I guess it will turn into one of those in-house family jokes every time we eat chicken!
