Oh wow, it took me several days, but I finally got to the end of this thread. It's been wonderfully funny.
And reminded me of some of my misconceptions as a child. I used to not want to eat brown eggs, because here in southern texas the main store eggs were always white, so I thought they looked icky. Then I tried one and realized they tasted the same, lol. I was smitten with the green eggs we got from a farm awhile back though. I want some ameracaunas now.
Also, in highschool, I had a friend who RAISED chickens, and she insisted that the rooster went and fertilized the eggs after they were laid. She would never believe me that roosters mated with the hens, which I knew even though I'd never owned chickens, or really even seen a live one in person before I met hers.
I think I thought the brown cows=chocolate milk think for awhile too, when I was really little.
