How Did Baby Dinosaurs Hatch?
All dinosaurs hatched from eggs – just like chicks! Some dino eggs were round like a ball, while others were long and oval. The biggest known dinosaur eggs were about as long as a grown-up’s forearm. Scientists have discovered that baby dinos stayed in their eggs a pretty long time: often several months, much longer than chicks, which hatch after about three weeks. The babies were tiny compared to their parents and grew up very fast.
Fun Ideas for Your Finished Hatching Page
