How do they get out of there?….Why do they hatch at different times?…..Can we help them hatch?

Join us to check the growth of our chicks inside the eggs and learn how they hatch. Farmer Karen will lead a chick storytime and craft, and you might even get to see a hatching!

MCL is leading up to a dinosaur-themed summer with the mighty T-rex’s closest living relative – the chicken. “Chick Days at MCL” provides a hands-on learning experience that will spark curiosity and build background knowledge on animal life cycles and farming.
