Important Fyi

When researching how to figure out the gender of your chicks by checking their vent, DO NOT Google "how to sex chicks" because, trust me, THE SITES THAT COME UP HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH POULTRY.

I know, youtube is just as bad.

Oh yeah... once I was looking for pics to make a collage of sorts... trying to decide on eyes for a character in a story yes?

I won't say what I googled, because then someone else will do it, but it was NOT good.

I did google the chick thing once, and ended up seeing the vid about hatchery sexing... poor babies getting thumped along conveyors and then tossed down chutes. One reason I'm thinking of just buying locally/hatching myself instead of buying from a feed store (that orders).

Yeah, well now I get the double joy of nonstop "sex chicks" spam PLUS the added memory of upsetting the chicks by carefully trying to check their vents, which btw are about as 'readable' as Sanscrit, for me (seriously? It's A HOLE. There's no bump or indent or anything except A HOLE. And lots of chick feces, TYVM! EW!! wth)
I think I have chicken-vent-PTSD.

God help me, I hope I get dementia so I won't remember pooing chick butt for the rest of my days....

Poor chicks!

I do remember a time when my DDs were toddlers and I got bitten by a brown recluse. I wanted to turn it into an educational experience for them. Do not EVER type in a search for black widows! THere were so many obscene pop ups I had to yell at my girls to leave the room until I could clear the monitor. *shiver* the things people will do!

My office ran out of ink pens so I asked my "friend" how to get another box...

"Oh, We just order them from (removed) dot com..." he said.

So I looked it up...........
It took me an hour to explain to the porn police that it was some fools stupid joke.

Border, I was VERY gentle with the chicks (probably the reason I couldn't see anything). I'm a total animal person, would never harm one! My pets are my babies!

And in fact we're gonna have a slew of baby bearded dragons coming in early February (if anyone's in the Portland/Vancouver area and has interest). Incubator's set up and our two ladies should be laying within the next couple of weeks. Can't wait!!

Seismic, Love your quote! Nice! lol -I do all my googling at home, not an office, so I don't have to worry so much about SFW. I DO have to worry about my curious kids looking over my shoulder though...and trying to avoid gross spam...

You guys have a nice day!

Never look up Brown Jugs or Jugs or Old Jugs

I was researching a antique Pottery Jug

Like I tell my students, word usage is everything and phrasing is more important!!!! LOL!! Remember, it's Whitehouse.gov, not .com!
