ChickQuest, including some chick doctoring, too!

South Range Elementary teacher Tawny Tharp won grant materials to share ChickQuest with her third grade students.

“I have been having a fun time with my students during the month of May while we waited for our incubated chicks to hatch! One of our chicks hatched with curved feet and couldn’t walk properly. I researched to see if I could do anything to help and was able to construct it a pair of ‘shoes’ using cardboard and safe tape. One night in the shoes and its toes straightened right up. The students were thrilled with the success.”

Below are some photos of their experience:
