• Day -2
    Today I was put in a weird thing. All my brothers and sisters and I were put in this thing separated from the rest. Neep and Meep are on either side of me and Zeep is behind me. We are with 12 out of 24 of our brothers and sisters. Wait... HOLY CHEEP we're moving; it feels like we're rolling. (is this a car?) Uh-oh. ~the Egg

    Day -1
    OK! I'm kind of bored with hearing these weird discussions about “maths” and all those other things. Oh, guess what, I learned what the weird thing we're in is called, an egg carton. Hmm... what a weird named thing. Anyways I'm pretty sure something new will be coming tomorrow. By the way, why am I all, how do I put this, jellyish? I can't wiggle the toes I don't have yet if I'm all jellyish! And when I hatch, how will I walk? Oh cheep, Ill be a weird blob thing! What'll I do? Oh well I'll cross that bridge when I get there. By the way if I'm all jelly how will I hatch at all? ~ the Egg

    Day 0
    Oh my egg! No put me down NOW! Hey, whats that scratching noise? Are they writing on me? Oh my egg! Stop moving!you're going to drop me! Hey! Ohhh! Ahhh! Nice and warm! It's called an incubator. I sure like it! Thank egg-ness Zeep is next to me! Neep is too. Neep is sort of a nag though. Oh well he / she is my brother/ sister. Oh! And you know what? I learned my name today. Jimbo. Has a nice ring to it, don't you think?

    Day 1
    My nervous system is starting to develop today, I wonder what that means. Anyways today we found out that we get rolled onto our sides 3 times a day. Which is pretty fun because it's the only time we move at all. Bye for now. - Jimbo

    Day 2
    Cool! I have blood! Cool. I'm not sure if this is a good thing though. Now I'll be a pretty ugly blob of jelly. Bye for now.- Jimbo

    Day 3
    Today was a sad day. Neep was picked for an in-vitro observation. It's not all its cracked up to be, though. The voices outside say (s)he won't make it. Other than that, nothing new, same old, same old. Bye for now
    -Jimbo

    Day 4
    More blood vessels today. I'm going to be an ugly blob. Zeep says I shouldn't worry. He's crazy if he doesn't worry. Oh well. - Jimbo

    Day 5
    Something weird happened today. I have a weird bubblish head. It's strange. Anyways I really don't know how I'm gonna hatch. Bye for now. - Jimbo


    Day 6
    HOPE!!!!!!! I just might hatch. I think my blob sprouted a body! Its very oddly shaped, but who knows, could lead somewhere. We'll see. The voices are “oooing” and “ahhing” over Neep. That's not very polite, I don't think. Anyways that's all ... but a body! Bye for now. - Jimbo

    Day 7
    I have a tooth thing! And I'm not even really jellyish anymore. I just can't even wait to be free of this egg. Its pretty cramped. That's all. Bye for now. - Jimbo

    Day 9
    Yesterday was pretty hectic and I didn't get to write. Anyways, I'm starting to get feathers. They're pretty neat. Yesterday I began to think. What will I even be? A tree? A person? I don't even know what I'll hatch into. Zeep thinks we'll be some sort-of “farm” animal. Whatever a farm is. - Jimbo

    Day 10
    I know how I'm going to hatch!!! this thing that Zeep called a beak, well its all hard now!! So using that and my tooth thing, I'LL HATCH!!!!!!!! Yay! I can't wait! It will be so cool! Anyways, got more growing to do. Bye for now. - Jimbo

    Day 12
    I can wiggle toes! I have some now! Yaay! It 's very awesome. So I've been thinking... how is Zeep so smart, anyways? Oh well, I'll ask him later. Bye for now.

    Day 14
    I turned towards the “blunt” end of the egg. Oh! I found out when I'm getting out of here! The outside voices keep saying “21 days” and stuff like that. So that means 7 days left! Except I don't know how long a day is. Bye for now. - Jimbo

    Day 15
    Zeep says tubes called small intestines are forming. I don't feel anything though. Bye for now.- Jimbo

    Day 16
    I'm fully covered with feathers since today. Now Zeep and I know that we will be a type of bird. 5 more days. Bye for now. -Jimbo

    Day 18
    I think, I hope I'm done growing. Or at least almost done growing. IT'S SO CRAMPED IN HERE! Oh well. Bye for now. - Jimbo

    Day 19
    The yolk around me is being drawn into my body. Odd. Only 2 more days though! Bye for now. - Jimbo

    Day 20
    I became a chick today! My “embryo” became a chick. And guess what? I'm breathing. “Peep peep,” WOW where did that come from? Was that me? “peep peep.” Oh my egg, it was me! Tomorrows the big day! - Jimbo

    Day 21
    I hatched!
    I'm a chick!
    I can't believe it! The voices were right, Neep didn't make it. We're all pretty bummed out. All 23 of us. Turns out Zeep is my sister. And I am her brother. We have 15 girls and 8 boys in our little chicken family. It feels so good not to be in that cramped little egg! Anyways, as the rest of my brothers and sisters, I'm exhausted, (can you believe it?!) That's all for now.
