EDUCATIONAL INCUBATION & HATCHING CHAT THREAD, w/ Sally Sunshine Shipped Eggs

For all the friends that knew about the breathing mechanism in Dolphins, do you know about the

"Ondine's curse". It could be also called the dolphin human

Yup - knew that, too! (Of course, I teach medical school, so...) :D


Did you know that elephant seals only breath once every 20 minutes while on land, and can go 2 hours between breaths while at sea?

We are looking at these guys to figure out a mechanism to rescue/protect the brain after stroke.

Did you find anything? How their brain gets the Oxygen while not breathing? Myoglobin storage?


Actually it may sound odd but their high levels of blood carbon monoxide is neuro protective.

?!


Google it!!
 
@Article Editor I am in lockdown for a Saturday hatch on Pepper, OE, and Seramas eggs from Sally.

My four week old chicks ventured out with the two month old chicks for the first time yesterday.

I did!
Is it like the mechanism of a moderate heating that protect from heat struck via heat shock protein?
I understood that Nrf2 is involved, very interesting!
 
For Benny, a good review on the subject:
