CP2 Hatches! = V15

V15 hatched!  This is our 6th chick.  V15 will be named by Children's Park so for now this is CP2 (we had CP last year).  Also, I feel compelled to tell you all that Billy the Chick is not doing so hot.  He had a very large sack dragging and after reading, researching, and talking to one of our chicken families, I decided to do an operation.  I know.  So I tied it and cut it off, just like an umbilical cord.  Billy the Chick is now resting in a bowl in the incubator.  We will see how he does.

So, a lot of people wonder why we hatch chicks...of course it fits right in with our mission of life long learning.  Plus it is fascinating and gets a lot of people into the library to check out the chicks.

Here are two pics, one of our littlest patrons and one of some teens.  Everyone likes the chicks!
