Decorating at a new level...Chick Custom

[aguycollector]

Well here is the chick as seen in my april fools thread.

The story is from an actual BBC NEWS article. It's very interesting but I'm not entirely sure I agree with the practice. Thank you to the member who tipped me off about real life coloured chicks!






Hope you have a great Spring/Easter Season !

My mom told me they used to do that when she was little! (She's now in her 60's!) She said the biggest problem was that people didn't realize that they turned into chickens! I guess they can't stay babies forever! Your little purple chick looks great and I honestly fell for your little April fools prank! Good one!!!

I have seen those chicks on the news, but never actually seen them in real life... I wonder where exactly that farm is? (I live in Eagle River, which is right outside of Anchorage. They do mean Anchorage, Alaska, don't they?)
I personally think it is silly and dumb. I am more concerned about what happens to the chicks after they hatch than the dye being injected into the shells. It is like all animals... once they become adults they are no longer wanted.

Great custom

I saw live chicks like that when I was a kid. They were cute but I prefer my live chicks in the natural colours of yellow, black, red, grey, brown ect

Customs are another thing all together...very cute
