Mrs. Utterback's 4th grade class has enjoyed Game Breeders Association Members, Tosha and Dale Logston, from Buckshot Game Farm, teaching them about chickens and giving them eggs to incubate! They also came to show them chickens that were 9 days old, 27 days old and approximately 1 year old! The students had a blast and are thankful for Mrs. Tosha teaching them about the chickens and how to handle the eggs as they incubate!
