OT, but I love it
The BBC has an online article about the farm in Alaska which injects dye into
chicken eggs so that when the eggs hatch, the chicks come out in various colours, such as green, pink, blue and the like. The article is at http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/americas/3615191.stm The bit I find hilarious is towards the end it says, "The dye, which the farm insists does not contain chemicals, is injected into ordinary chicken eggs a few weeks before Easter." Err, just what do the farm people think a dye is made of? *Everything* is made of chemicals ;-) Cheers, helen s --This is an invalid email address to avoid spam-- to get correct one remove fame & fortune **$om $ --Due to financial crisis the light at the end of the tunnel is switched off-- |

The manufacturers solemnly declared on the packet that they had been "grown biologically". Excuse me? Growth is always a biological process, however much e.g. insecticide you spray on the plant. ;o) -- Marina, Frank and Nikki Email marina (dot) kurten (at) pp (dot) inet (dot) fi Pics at http://uk.f1.pg.photos.yahoo.com/frankiennikki |

They should get the Chickens that lay Easter eggs! My MIL has them, and she saved back the most brightly colored ones for us for Easter. Sherry |

They did it all the time when I was a kid (Back in the fifties) And I can attest that the colored chicks grow up just fine. After having to find homes for two after their feathers came in, my folks quite letting me get them. I mean we did live in an apartment and one was a little rooster. Jo |
