What an eggsperiment!

A group of high school students in Japan have made an incredible discovery - they've figured out how to hatch a perfectly healthy chick from an egg without the shell.

The discovery is so significant, the students' findings have been published in a scientific journal.

The experiment - which was filmed and then shared on YouTube - consists of a few very simple steps and takes less than one month.

By day three - the little chick's heart had formed, and by day five, the outline of its body could be seen.

In just three weeks, a tiny little chick was born.

The video of the fascinating experiment has gained nearly 400,000 views in just three days - however, it doesn't look like they were the first to have the Eureka moment, after all.

The experiment was published in the Journal of Poultry Science 45 years ago in 1971.
