QUIZ ANSWER

Last Monday's quiz about the gestation period of a hen or any fowl was a fooler.  Gestation is the period that new life develops within the body of the mother.  That happens in all mammals, some reptiles and a few fish but never in fowl.  The answer to the quiz is "That's a stupid question, Pat. Why did you ask it?"

Well, it was an opportunity for you to learn a new word, i.e.  VIVIPAROUS.  As a bonus, you could also learn OVOVIVIPAROUS. I would give you the definitions but then you'd never remember the words.

Pity my children who had to live with me for so many years.  :) 👀
