How can I tell if my hen is pregnant?

[ColtHandorf]

I am afraid to Google chicken nipples. Simply knowing that there are "Furies" in the world, makes me fear the fact that there may be "featheries" too.

Furies are from Greek Mythology. lol Furries are individuals who have "fursonas" and often dress up in suits. The term furry is not limited to only individuals who have mammal fursonas, but also those with scaled and feathered fursonas as well.

Isn't the spicer question who here isn't one?

I for one am not, but I know people who are, and often see them at anime conventions. I certainly appreciate their dedication when it's a hundred degrees outside and they are still in their fur suits.

On a completely unrelated note, this was a fantastic thread for a laugh in the morning. It started off with kind of an abject horror, but rapidly became amusing.

Is that you Mrs. Rhicter? Sure got a lot of intimate knowledge on the subject. (I went with spell check, 50/50)

No, but I have a Bachelor's Degree in Psychology (and English) and am pursuing a Master's Degree in both as well. One of the PhD's at the university does a lot of research work in interesting fields like the furry community. And like I said, I know people that are.

.....So when, "Doc, I got this buddy who is...." What's the clinical term for that?

You're asking the clinical term for a furry?

Just joking. The whole, the more adamant the denial, generally the higher perception of guilt....

Gosh, I hope we haven't run them off.....unless of course they were a troll.

I'm pretty dumb and don't often recognize when being trolled but I figured it out in the first post.

Two methods I know of.
A. put pickle relish on strawberry ice cream, if she eats it, she's knocked up.
B. Tell her she still looks beautiful, if she cries for more than two minutes, she's knocked up.

"Does this dress make me look fat?"
"No, your fat makes you look fat."

Those gotta be fake..spacing is too perfect.
Those aren't nipples they're lies, dirty store bought lies.
Won't even touch the fact they're fully exposed in public.
Of course the roo is sticking around for that show.

Nippleless bras, my favorite!

Reminds me of a story one of my former students, who works for TSC, told. A customer returned a brooder they purchased as it didn't work because none of their eggs hatched. When my student asked how old their roster was and she found out they didn't have one.

I was talking about chickens to a friend of my wife who is a nurse because one of her neighbors had a huge flock of chickens. I found out she didn't know a rooster was a male chicken. In the same conversation, I learned that she ate eggs till she found out they came from chickens. Her boyfriend who is a doctor friend of mine was shocked. How does one reach adulthood and not know those two bits of information. All one has to do is see the cartoon Foghorn Leghorn. The doctor asked how she couldn't know that. She said, ask her anything about drugs and she knows about it but she doesn't know anything else. No kidding.

After a minute I realized there is no way this can be true, figured I just try it for myself. I had mixed results. First one, I found out chicken farts are real. Second one it traumatized , a little. Third one, I learned beaks are sharp. Fourth, well judging from the clover flowers in her beak and the following me, I think she has developed a crush.

That's special.
Thanks for posting.

If the OP is still with us, as a child I learned the things that differentiate mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians and fish.
Mammals are so named because they have mammary glands. No other class of vertebrates produce milk. They also all have fur and bear live young except echidnas and duckbill platypus which lay and brood eggs.
Birds all have feathers and are egg layers.
