Description: The children in Mrs. Kerr's class learn the true meaning of "farm fresh" when Farmer Berry deposits 12 smelly eggs in the incubator. Finally "the eggs opened, one by one," but the children's delight turns to dismay as they wait for Farmer Berry to return: the chicks are rapidly growing into unruly, odorous hens. When Farmer Berry sees how healthy the chickens are, she brings some bunnies and a goat for the class, and what was once a pleasant class experiment turns into a nightmare.
