Which came first... the chicken or the egg?
ChickQuest teaches youth about the life cycle of a chicken through preparing an incubator habitat for chick eggs. As they observe the 21-day life cycle and prepare for hatching, youth will work as real-world scientists: observing, recording, analyzing, experimenting, problem solving, and more! Youth also learn about Wisconsin agriculture and food sources and how food does not start from a box or bag.
Youth are encouraged to attend all sessions for full experience.
