pinkchick- is that chick really pink? Here in Iowa, it's illegal to buy or sell dyed animals. Did it stay pink? How the heck is it pink anyways? I've read somewhere that the embryo is dyed while in the egg.
LOL! Photoshop can have that effect on any chicks, quite harmless! do you really believe that chick is really pink????? Or remained pink for the rest of its life????
Most states now say it is illegial to dye chicks but however you can dye your own chicks with poodle dyes. As long those chicks are not to be sold, perfectly legal and I would do the same for my white feathered chickens, including Silkies. A BYCer while back dyed her white Silky girl pink for her friend's wedding and it was the cutest thing!
There are different method of dyeing chicks and chickens and what you mentioned are one of those. Dog dyes are another one. Kool Aid are another. Grape juice or beet juices and on and on.
Rest assured, no harm was done to the chick, photoshopped or really dyed!
