I have not heard of scientists dyeing wild endangered chicks for the sake of tracking. What would this possibly teach them that simple observation would not? Also, wouldn't dyeing them interefere with the camoflouge effect of many species' baby down? Could you possibly show me some info about these studies? I am genuinely curious as this simply doesn't make sense to me. I would like to know more about it if this is something that is actually beinig utilized.
As far as my reasons for not liking it... I dunno, call me crazy, but in general I am not going to be on board with tampering with fetuses and embryos simply for the sake of coolness. Just one of my silly little hang-ups. :p

ok guys, i'm not actually going to color the chicks i'm going to incubate, I just wanted to see if everyones views on the subject were still the same after the info I presented.
And i didn't mean it to be belittling to you guys about me saying that I love animals more than anyone else, I was just trying to say that I love them very much and would never want anything to happen to them that would be hazardous to their health. :( :confused:
Sophist, I'll try to find some info for you on the internet about the utilization of the studies.

I would appreciate that, thanks.
I know also that you didn't mean any offense with your comment about loving your animals.
