“We chose to undertake a Living Eggs hatching programme during lockdown as part of our home schooling – it’s been utterly magical for all of the family. We chose Living Eggs as we were impressed with the emphasis on chick welfare and their excellent re-homing policy. The equipment was very simple to set up and use, Phil stood at the back door and talked me through the process of setting it up while maintaining social distancing. We actually watched two of the chicks hatch, which was an amazing experience, with 6 more hatching overnight (we came downstairs in the morning to a mass of cheeping fluff in the incubator!). Watching their antics over the last few days has been so lovely, they seem to like watching tv so we had a fun ‘movie afternoon’ where we made them popcorn as a treat and we all watched ‘Chicken Run’ together. The teaching resources that came with the set up are wonderful too and make for lots of fun and educational activities – ideal for lockdown home learning. The team at Living Eggs Reading were really prompt to reply to a couple of queries I had about the hatching process, I really appreciated being so well supported”
