Takahe facts

Did you know down in Te Anau there's a guy called Andrew and he's taking us on a field trip  to see baby chicks and mother Takahe's.  Their enemies are stoats rat's and weka,they eat the Takahes eggs.Andrew has to be quiet to look at the eggs and be quiet to leave and go back to the Burnwood office and put the egg in the small incubatur.Theirs a small incubatur that fits only one egg but the large one takes eight eggs.

Takahe facts

This week we are getting audio conferences from the Murchison Mountains. Other schools of NZ ask questions about Andrews job and the takahe. Only 6 out of 10 Takahe chicks in the wild  survive.The size of an incubator (a large one) can fit eight eggs in it.Small two eggs. In the last week four chicks have hatched.The bad thing is stoats eat chicks,eggs and some times the parents. The incubator is 36 degrees c.We like takahe!!
