Quote: There will be in the May Hatch A Long!

Quote:

Age Discrimination at Car Dealership...

A retired older couple return to a Mercedes dealership where the salesman has just sold the car they were interested in to a beautiful, leggy, busty blonde.

"I thought you said you would hold that car till we raised the $155,000 asking price," said the older man. "Yet I just heard you closed the deal for $130,000 to the lovely young lady there. You insisted there could be no discount on this model."

"Well, what can I tell you? She had the ready cash and, just look at her, how could I resist?" replied the grinning salesman.

Just then the young woman approached the senior couple and gave them the keys.

"There you go," she said. "I told you I would get the dope to reduce the price. See you later, dad."

Never mess with seniors

@casportpony , what do you think the chances of a chick surviving after it hatches with what appears to be pieces of it's yolk sac stuck to the shell? It cmae from one of the worst saddled air cells in this batch, but it managed to pip and zip on it's own. I had it sitting in an egg crate, so when it didn't hop out of the shell, I figured it was because of it's position. After letting it sit like that for about an hour, I tipped the shell so it could push out. When it did, it's innards were stuck to the shell. I eased it back into it's shell, then moved it to my other incubator. I figured it would die soon, since it appeared rather weak. That was at 7am this morning. When I came home for lunch at 12:30pm, it was still alive and chirping up a storm. I decided to at least try to do something, since the contents of the shell had dried somewhat and there was something that resembled a dried umbilical cord attaching the mass and abdomen. I used sterile scissors to cut the cord fairly close to the abdomen, which was thankfully closed, then patted it wound down with betadine. There was little-to-no bleeding whatsoever. Since I don't have any electrolyte handy, I gave it some artificially flavored fruit punch, thinking the sugar might give it a boost. It's resting now, or maybe dying, but it's still alive. This is the chick...

Thanks. I haven't had the pleasure. Have you eaten them? All the Asian markets around here have them. As I understand it they have to be incubated between 14 and 21 days. I think it would be creepy once they get feathers.

He can drive me nuts!

Then please do join us in Crazy Camp.

I just finished reading it.
My question was if you had eaten them.
I have Asian friends that do.

I was teaching a chicken processing class, When we eviscerated and talked about the edible organs, someone asked if you can eat the lungs.
A Chinese friend was attending the class and she said, "Chinese people don't eat the lungs and if Chinese don't eat it, it can't be eaten."

I know. Therein lies the problem I have with the feathers and beak. Do Filipinos spit out the beak?

But hey, it's all good animal protein right?
A raccoon wouldn't turn up its nose at it.
