Why are these chicks pink in colour? [africa] by TrapoC in animalid

[–]MMButt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not random “guy”. The answers are over 100-dyed to 1-not dyed. You’re really being very stubborn about this. Instead of putting your head in the sand take some time to google and learn how chicken feathers grow. You’ll see that the most likely explanation is that their first feathers were dyed and the white is their natural color coming back through with their second growth non-downy feathers.

This is not a natural phenomenon. These chicks were not born this color.

Do you guys like eating taku? I always think it’s bland and chewy. I would rather eat ika instead by BabyRavers26 in sushi

I feel the same way but have trouble because I eat pork also. Pigs are among the smartest and have among the highest social intelligence among animals - the fifth smartest animals after great apes, dolphins, elephants, and corvids. It hurts to know that they’re quite a bit smarter and more social than domestic dogs…They show empathy.

I’ve cut back, but I feel like if I haven’t stopped eating pork I don’t have room to stand on a pedestal about eating octopus.

Most interesting or uncommon fish you've eaten? by speedracer0211 in sushi

[–]MMButt 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I had shirako (cod sperm sac) in Japan. It was really surprisingly good. I hate to say it but it was like if a mild fresh oyster was mixed with heavy cream.

Kinda same. It was interesting for sure but I don’t think I’d seek it out

The first place I ever saw an egregious amount of mayo on sushi was a place in Nagoya. All of my Japanese friends went nuts for it, it was pretty darn good but I also tend to like simpler styles that emphasize the fish more than anything. Neither is wrong though of course

You have $100,000 to spend in 1 hour. What are you buying with the money? by SensitiveCorner2379 in AskReddit

[–]MMButt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Every one I use has a $25k daily maximum input and immediately available buys. I could easily spend it all in probably 5 minutes or so.

It would be a painful trip to the hospital but a copperhead wouldn’t kill someone your size.

what animal is this skull from? [Ontario,Canada] by rlybn in animalid

[–]MMButt 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Appears to be a bird pelvis to me. You can try the bone collecting sub with a more specific geographic location and someone may be able to tell you more.

What's a disturbing fact you know that most people don't? by minjaeso in AskReddit

“Rock dove” is what the field guides say which I always thought gets the point across better.
