What is the purpose of an egg drop experiment?
Purpose: To explore concepts of momentum and collision by developing a container to lessen the force of impact when an egg is dropped from a high place.
What is the hypothesis for the egg drop experiment?
Hypothesis: If I test 3 different types of padding to protect an egg when it is dropped, then the bubble wrap will provide the most protection to the egg.
What will protect an egg when dropped?
Possibilities include balloons, popcorn, packing peanuts, wads of paper or cereal puffs. Encase the egg in any of these inside a paper or plastic bag, a sock or a stocking. If you have any bubble wrap around the house, wrapping the egg in several layers of bubble wrap should also provide a good cushion.

Which end of the egg comes out first?
Just before the hen lays her egg, she stands up a bit in the nest, holding a squatting position, and the egg flips around so that it’s laid blunt end first, making for a better landing, more surface area for cushioning and less likelihood of being broken.
What happens if egg breaks inside hen?
A broken egg can become infected and lead to peritonitis, which is caused by egg material stuck inside the hen and must be treated immediately with an antibiotic and probiotic powder to build up her good bacteria. Even if the egg is not broken, the condition must be treated quickly.
Can you eat a fart egg?
Are Fart Eggs Safe to Eat? Yes! They are perfectly safe to eat. The first Fart Egg we got was only a single yolk with no egg whites.
Are the eggs that we eat baby chickens?
After the egg is laid the embryo stays in a kind of suspended animation until the hen sits on it to incubate it. So, the eggs that most of us eat do not have embryos. And even the eggs from farm and backyard chicken eggs probably have not developed enough to be at the stage where one would be eating a baby chick.
How do you know if an egg is an egg or a chick?
A fertilized germinal disk looks like a tiny white donut or bullseye—a white ring with a clear center. If you’re still not sure whether a collected egg contains a developing chick, candling the egg should solve the mystery.
How do you tell if a chick has died in the egg?
You may hear them tapping inside (if they are ready to start hatching) if you hold the large end of the egg up to your ear. I’ve found that if a chick dies a clear space develops under the air cell and the shadow of the chick looks blotchy and lumpy. So if they look very full then hopefully they are still alive.
How do farmers know if a chicken egg is fertilized?
The oldest and easiest way to tell if an egg is fertilized is called candling the egg. It is literally holding the egg up to a lit candle {not to warm it, but in order to see inside of the egg}. You can also use a very bright small flashlight. If the egg appears opaque, it is probably a fertilized egg.
What does a fertile egg look like?
Cracking the egg into a dish, look at the yolk. If the egg is fertile, you’ll see a distinctive “bulls-eye” shape, like the one below (I love my little chicken dishes, don’t you?!). This egg is fertile: see the very distinctive “bulls-eye” on the yolk?
Can you make a homemade incubator?
A DIY incubator made with a styrofoam container and strong mesh flooring. A bowl and sponge to hold water and keep humidity at the right level. The bowl must be kept away from the hatching chicks, otherwise it’s easy for them to drown. Placing it on the floor with mesh on top is a good solution.
Do eggs get heavier before they hatch?
An egg is a closed system. Due to evaporation of the liquid in the egg due the permeable shell, the egg will get lighter as you incubate it. It has to lose a certain percent of it’s weight to hatch. There is no way it can get heavier normally…
How cold can an egg get and still hatch?
Within a range of 35 to 40.5°C (84.5 – 104.9°F) there is the possibility of eggs hatching. The optimum (for hens) is 37.5 °C (99.5°F), above this temperature as well as a reduced hatch there will be an increase in the number of crippled and deformed chicks. Above 40.5 °C (104.9°F) no embryos will survive.
Can you candle eggs on day 19?
Day 19. There are no further candling photographs after this point because the eggs need to be left alone so the chicks can properly position themselves for hatching.
Will chickens hatch after 21 days?
Fertile chicken eggs take around 21 days to hatch. Some breeds take a little less and some a little longer. If the egg has not hatched after 25 days, it should be removed from the broody hen or incubator. Eggs need constant heat during the full incubation period for the embryo to develop into a chick.
