Folkmanis Mini Chick Finger Puppet

The Folkmanis mini chick finger puppet is oh so sweet. Perfectly sized for little hands, this precious chick has super-soft plush fabric and delicate facial features, and it makes a first solo performance possible at the edge of the breakfast table.

Chicks of the domestic hen (Gallus gallus domesticus) hatch after twenty-one days and are running after the hen the same day. They learn what to eat by watching: she pecks at a chosen morsel, clucks over it, and the chicks copy her choice. Warmth comes from under her plumage, because the young cannot yet hold their own temperature. Within weeks true feathers replace the down, and a pecking order takes shape in the group.

Did you know that a chick opens its egg with a tool of its own? A hard egg tooth on the tip of the beak splits the shell from the inside, and it drops off by itself a few days after hatching.
