Baby Chick Standing Near an Eggshell
This page shows a young baby chick standing beside a large cracked eggshell. The scene features the small bird with its little wings, tiny beak, and short feet right next to the shell it just hatched from.
Nature Facts About Hatching Baby Chicks
Chicks use a special temporary tooth on their beak, called an egg tooth, to peck through the hard eggshell from the inside. Within just a few hours of hatching, their wet downy feathers dry out into soft fluff, and they can already walk around.
