Go Egg Incubator by Autoelex

This gave me chuckle:

http://www.autoelex.com/eng/egg.php
...by promising to provide a “micro computer that is smarter than hens [which] promptly sets up the all necessary conditions.” Apparently you can drop any old egg in this incubator, “from quail to duck” they say, and come back in about 21 days to a hatched baby bird of your choice...

Well this will be good for the kids...

I think that once past the fertilization stage getting an egg to hatch isn't a marvel in engineering.

[General Nuke Em]

Hatching baby birds in my house is not a passtime I had in mind.

woah - a computer thats smarter than a chicken.

Truly we are living in a golden age of technology.

[Retroboy]

"hatch any old egg", huh?

How about these?

Science still might have a limitation or two...

Retro, I think the second one would have been enough to prove your point, but HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!111111oneone

[TBS]

Well the second one isnt actually an egg...

[Vaarok]

Strange, the egg incubator I bought from the hardware store does the same thing, and it's just a heater and a little motorized egg-turning tray in a styrofoam box.

[TBS]

Vaarok: but is it smarter than a chicken? :p

[Starfisher]

It's motorized.

So yes.

Much more interesting and cool chicken related development: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/scotland/1052515.stm

I wouldn't mind having me a 'designer chick' myself! Know what i mean? *wink wink nudge nudge*

Say no more! :murph:

[Rincewind]

Vaarok's styrofoam box is smarter than a chicken. This device is just a hyped up normal incubator for those who cannot turn a few dials.

Hmmmmmm!!!!! Baby bird.
