Not much chance of that. (snip/snip) Quimby is one of our birds (a pink Salmon Crested Moluccan Cockatoo), not a human offspring. (Shh... don't tell our birds that they're not really people! Quimby would look at you and say "What are you doing? Hmm?")
For almost 8 years, we were under the assumption that Quimby was a male, and Binkley (our 6 year old Umbrella Cockatoo), also. Now that Quimby has laid an egg, we have to get used to using "her" and "she" references and choose a less masculine name for her. The results of the DNA sexing for Binkley are due next week. We're still pretty sure that Binkley is a male, but there's always been a certain amount of doubt. There is no question about Charlie (my parrot) being a male. I'll spare the details. :)
Anywheighzzz... the only pregnancies that are likely around our house are the #%^$&! burrowing rodents in the back yard. Our neighborhood has recently become inundated with either moles or gophers. They're what you might consider to be "underground vegans". Maybe I should stuff some cloned meat down in their burrows to scare them back into my neighbors' yards. ;)
