Yesterday was having a conversation at work about my chickens with non chicken owners. One girl(a nurse by the way) asked me how do chicks get into the egg? I said "well you need a rooster to mate the hen to create a fertilized egg". Well she and another nurse thought the hen layed the egg first and the rooster then mated the egg to produce a chick. Are people really this illeterate when it comes to biology. Keep in mind, these were two fellow rn's I work with. When I explained the facts of life to them about chickens they seemed amazed, jeesh and I thought I had a lot to learn about the breeding of chickens.
