I think Rob Garren’s Purple Poultry Project is very interesting and i have been following it closely i think for over a year now. He has some very pretty birds but the project is still in its infancy but im glad he made a group where he specifically posts.
He is basically selecting birds who have lots of iridescence and selecting for purple iridescence specifically. If I remember correctly he wants to produce birds who are large meaty and are productive egg layers.
His founding birds were Ayam Cemani, Sumatra, and a land race chicken breed Ponape but has since added other breeds like the Shamo
this bright yellow cardinal, affectionately known as “tweets”, currently resides on the university of florida campus. typically male cardinals are a distinctive red; this bird’s coloration is due to a genetic mutation called xanthochromism. xanthochromic birds lack an enzyme that properly converts yellow to red, leaving pigments in their body the original yellow.
Omg i just remembered. My dad, who gets his pop culture knowledge from old man twitter and crossword puzzles, said to me this morning: “Did you know what the foot pads of a cat are called? (long, smug pause) Toe beans…”
I can’t donate my body to science what if it goes to a medical school and when the students crack open my torso and the professor says “I’m sorry these are the stupidest organs I’ve ever seen”
