They were born at the end of August. The mother of the piglets is named Delilah. Animals by Mark and Dayton At the Morris Farm there are a lot of animals. They have pigs, turkeys, chickens, cows, and one rooster. We learned that the eggs that the hens lay are brown.
Hens are female egg laying chickens.
In winter,the chickens live inside the hen house, but they are allowed to go outside in the hen yard. Last year's first grade at the Wiscasset Primary School hatched chicks and the chickens that we visited on the farm were from that group of chicks. They are almost old enough to lay eggs of their own. It takes about three weeks for chickens eggs to hatch. The Morris Farm has sixteen calves.
