The Anson chicks

Every year we get some new members of the Anson family. The chicks live in the radio station. On this page you can watch them hatching from their eggs, find out more about the chicks and play some fun games. 

LIVE ACTION FROM CRACKLEWOOD FARM!

Watch again as the third chick hatches!

The Anson Chicks

You can watch the whole hatching process from the arrival of the chicks on Monday morning to the point they are transferred to their new home on Friday morning. Watch out for how active they are at night and how tired they are on Friday morning.
