What are the odds?

[Alo]

The sun's rising, and I've got lots of animals that need food and water for the day, before I take my puppies to town...

Gotta go. Thanks for the help.

Aloha nui!

I didn't buy lotto chicks, and they were advertised as laying 250 eggs a year.

Something not quite right here.

What breeds exactly did you order. Asils will not be laying 250 eggs a year and if the other fowl you've ordered are also game breeds they won't be laying 250 eggs per year either.
If you've got game birds and they are males it's doubtful that you will be able to keep the males. Asils are very likely to fight each other and kill each other if kept together.
If you have other standard chickens it's unlikely you will be able to keep them and the game fowl together either.
You asked earlier what you should do about the new order you've made and my advice is cancel it until you know what you have now.

This is officially the weirdest thread I've ever stumbled into. I thought people were not supposed to interact with monkeys because of diseases?? And monkey bite wounds are worse than cats? Or am I being too literal about the monkey thing.

Welcome to the weirdness. These kinds of thing usually just stay in my head, but apparently I've found kin in Alo with the weirdness.

Alo totally goes and hangs out with the monkeys. It's usually every other weekend, but sometimes it's a lil more often. He has actually built up a resistance to most of the monkey diseases from this exposure. Like, injecting a small amount of snake venom to build up an immunity.

I'm hoping to join him with the monkeys next weekend. Want to come?

Seems to be the general consensus here.

Makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside....

Thank you!
So I'm a vet pathologist and one of the very first decisions I ever made about what animals I would and would not deal with is NO MONKEYS. Nasty things. Pigs were a close second (though kuhn kunhs are adorable and I'd love to have a couple). I suppose going all Jane Goodall and hanging out with monkeys on an interpersonal bug hunt could be interesting...but the risk of herpes, bite wounds and a poop fight is not worth a potential monkey bonding session. Maybe the monkeys in Hawaii are nicer than the research macaques we have to deal with.

I have to agree.. Monkey's aren't the most sanitary animals...

Sooooo, does this mean no monthly monkey meet ups for social grooming and poo flinging contests? Whoever flings it farthest wins bragging rights among the monkeys till next months meet up...

Thank you!
