Chicks not Chickens Sayed (o: they are too small to eat but the hens will be useful for laying eggs in the future. Another interesting market photo from your village.

Well done ........... Phil

Are these chicks dyed? Very interesting chicks and photo. Vey nice.

Methinks this is mistreatment of animals, first dy them and than put them in a wayyyyyyyyy to small kind of, sort of, cage to sell them to people to do what with them...use it as a toy.

Someone has to stop this kind of mistreatment in your country, why don't you start with it of not taken pictures of this kind of chicken life!!

I am sorry, but I don't think it belongs here on a wallpaper site....in my humble opinion...

I know...I am an animal lover and it makes me sad *read rebellious*
to see such things like this.

Never seen that before. They look great but I don't know what effect the colouring will have on them. Interesting to see this.

Very unusual colors, beautiful photo.

I have seen dyed chicks in other countries too. When it was legal to import tiny turtles to the U.S, they had paintings on their backs. I don't think the dying hurts them and they are probably in that cage just for transport a small distance to the market. I'd rather take issue with the dying of people by American drones than the dying of chicks for market

"Dying chicks is traditionally done as a way of identifying chicks from different groups of eggs. It is also a practice done in many wildlife management studies. Although you cannot dye a baby chicken after it has been hatched, it is still possible to dye a chick while it is an embryo. Though naturally-white breeds of chickens are satisfactory, other breeds of chicken can also be dyed. While dying chicken embryos does not harm them, it is still a practice not readily encouraged as it may cause death to the unborn chick if done incorrectly."*

Never seen it before.I am not so sure if i like it or not.Interesting photo.

I bet you didn't anticipate these comments :) Hope you aren't upset by them. I think the chicks are pretty, but I am curious as to why they dye them. I assume that they lose their colors when their adult feathers come in. Is that right?
As far as critiquing the photo, the subject is interesting, but there is a lot of distractions in the background.

I'm sorry and don't mean to upset you, but I have to agree with Twink, even if if it does not really harm them, I don't like this kind of treatment of any animal. They are helpless and leave it to man to come up with this kind of idea. Tigs♥ =^..^=

Thank you for the additional information there Cynlee, interesting upload.

It is a brand new thing to me...Why did they dye them ?
