Chicken Eggs

Chicken Eggs You find them on the ground, in trees and even in special houses built just for them. Their mother sits on them for weeks, but she does not hurt them. She just keeps them warm. Their parents have wings, and they will too. Their most common colours are white and brown. They can be big, small or in between. Be careful. Some are very soft and can break easily. What are they?Eggs, of course! All around the world, people eat eggs. But chicken eggs are the most popular. Boiled or fried, they taste really good. The Chinese are world leaders in chicken egg production, producing nearly 160 billion eggs a year.

Here's a challenge: one chicken can lay about 250 eggs in one year. That's a lot of eggs. Can you figure out how many chickens it will take to lay 160 billion eggs?
