Mildly Interesting

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

I looked this up on Google and several sites say that you can tell what color eggs a hen will lay by looking at their earlobes... I didn't even know chickens had earlobes lol

It's not consistently true, Leghorns have yellow colored ears and lay white eggs, but yes, MOST eggs can be differentiated by their "lobes".
