Because we're awesome??I don't understand how people can work a real job and keep up with anything on BYC.
Yes, SOME species of birds do it all the time. However, a minute percentage of avian species are level 1 precocial. Those are birds that can dump their eggs into piles of rotting vegetative matter just like crocodilians and the offspring can dig their way out and are immediately able to fly.. Poultry and waterfowl don't fit that classification. No North American birds possess this extreme level of precociality. Ducklings and most shorebirds are level 2 precocial. Chickens are level 3.lol The birds do it all the time...![]()
All one needs is a container, heat source, humidity, monitors and lots of sleepless hours and checking temp and humidity to keep them growing till hatch... Some birds even use a mound of mulch to put their eggs in, to hatch them. Adjusting by adding or removing mulch.
So the set up works with creativity, determination, and lots of patience... And did I mention sleepless hours..![]()
How awful. How is the dog doing?Hi there.
I've been very busy, plus I spent a couple weeks with a bad sinus infection and cough that sucked the energy out of me.
Saturday was my chicken class at the community college which eats up most of the day. Then, Sunday, my wife ran over her dog and I spent the day at the emergency clinic.
Oh...sweet!!Sort of. Not human health care.
I want to go into exotic veterinary.
I worked as an AHT in three different animal hospitals over the years. At one, one of the kids who was working there was also studying to be a vet. He flunked out of vet school. He became a chiropractor instead. True story!
11 year old Pomeranian has a broken pelvis and a collapsed urethra. From the 24/7 emergency clinic he was taken to the veterinary specialty services center to see if he's a candidate for surgery since he also has an enlarged heart. We haven't heard anything since. They are so busy, they don't even answer the phone. The emergency clinic bill was $1,000. If he gets surgery it will add another $3,000 minimum. One side of the pelvis is crushed.Oh my God...I'm not going to ever make it out of this parking lot. Is the puppers ok?
OK, other than caring for 8 flocks of chickens in the midst of 4 days of rain, needing to butcher 10 roosters, prepping to drive to Arkansas to bring back 5 bee hives and building trap nests. Those are the highlights of my lengthy to do list.Sooooo, other than that, how was your week? Sheesh!
