Does #2 mean that I will get spotted eggs from my spotted chicken??????????
Oh I can't wait to see my BR eggs!! They will be to cool to eat! - she squatted for the very first time today btw. Just when I thought she would never lay!
Someone told me the egg color depends on what the chicken had to eat. I thought that was actually a fairly intelligent explanation - compaired to other explanations out there anyways. Like flamingos- their food turns them pink.
Idk if this happens to other ppl or if I just draw the short stick but I always get ppl telling me facts about my animals. The problem here is they are almost always wrong and they are almost always from ppl who Have never even seen a ___(insert whatever animal here). Its even more "funny" (funny odd not hilarious) because I started school as a veterinary major and am strongly involved in my animals health and wellbeing- which includes having knowledge about their anatomy and behaviors (even outside of what I learned as a vet student). When I'm discussing my animals with someone who owns the same species I assume they have the same general knowledge about their pet as I do and I start the conversation at that level. I wouldn't approach any of you and say "well chickens start squatting before they lay eggs" I would assume you were aware - so why do ppl do that to me?? (sorry for the lame example its all I could think of on the spot). And I wouldn't dare go up to say a horse owner and spout off helpful hints as I've never owned a horse and my minimal knowledge of horses is probably not something a horse owner doesn't already know. That's my take on the situation anyways- I'm prepared to stand alone on it
