    Had the best experience with nanny mccluckins! Pickup = easy, hatching = easy, questions/concerns = easy, drop off = easy. My kids had an amazing summer activity and they got to learn something along the way. We will be doing this every year!

    Hatching the chicks with Nanny McCluckins was such a great experience! Meeting Julia was easy and she was very friendly and informative! When one of the chicks had problems hatching, I texted her late at night but she still responded to this anxious chick Mama! With her kind instructions, I was able to save the chick and turns out she is the biggest and fluffiest one that hatched! It was very rewarding and my kids loved the experience as well. I would and have already recommended Nanny McCluckins to my friends and family! We will probably do another one in the near future!
    Thank you for a wonderful experience!

    We did the duck hatching experience this year. It was so rewarding to watch the embryos develop inside the eggs via candling. 4 of our 6 eggs hatched and we had the joy of watching our ducklings grow from newly hatched babies to strong "teenagers" each with a unique personality. They would waddle behind us through the house in a little group with their webbed feet plopping on the ground and peeping adorably. Nanny McCluckins provided all the equipment we needed along with food and bedding and a water dispenser and detailed instructions for each stage along the way. The only thing I would change would be to request a lot more bedding. We ended up needing to buy a bunch more. It was hard to say goodbye to our sweet little peepers when they headed back to their home farm.

    We just gave back our chicks yesterday after completing our first Nanny McCluckins experience with chicken eggs. My kids, aged 10 and 7, and I had fun setting up the incubator and checking on the eggs according to calendar. We weren’t able to see much in 3/6 eggs when it was time to candle them because they were brown/green. We were so surprised to come home the day before scheduled hatch day to find that the runt who my daughter named Little, had hatched. We also got to witness the hatching of another chick - very cool to see! My kids enjoyed setting up the bin and transferring the chicks over, and of course playing with them and watching them grow over the last week. They named each of the chicks.

    I would say this experience was a valuable educational opportunity for my kids to learn about life and death. Unfortunately, one of the fully-formed chicks did not hatch, and Little the runt passed away on Day 6 after the other chicks had sat on her overnight. My daughter and I tried to nurse her back to health but it was too late. My children were very upset but we discussed how natural animal instincts lead to the survival of the fittest.

    The Nanny McCluckins team was available to answer my many questions via text and email. Overall, my children and I enjoyed the whole process and I would absolutely recommend it to anyone looking for a unique at-home science experience :)

    One suggestion I do have for Nanny McCluckins is to organize the instruction booklet with more sub-headings. There was a lot of information to review and sometimes cumbersome to find pertinent information on multiple pages.

    We love the Nanny McCluckins experience so much we did it for a second time. First with quails and this time with chickens. Both experiences were great. Hatching the chicks brings you closer to nature and nothing beats a chick snuggle. The baby birds are very gentle and social and easy to care for. 1 week with the chicks is the perfect amount of time to get to know them before they are ready for the farm. Nanny McCluckins is very helpful, always responding to all of my questions promptly. Highly recommended!
