I really like them because they challenge me and find weak spots in my knowledge. They're much different than any other poultry trivia quiz I've ever come across before... Most of the others are so easy my Rugrats could answer.

No.6. . ticks! Why couldn't I think of that.

I didn't. Honestly, I've never come across or seen anyone that has come across ticks on their birds.
