Eavesdropping is Fun

May 4, 2005 :: :: Textuality

Woman 1: So I looked in the cage, and there was an egg! When I got them I didn't know I was getting a male and a female. I got them pretty young, so you can't tell.
Woman 2: You can't just lift up their feathers and look? HEE HEE!

Woman 1: No. That isn't how it works. It isn't like a dog or a hampster. It doesn't stick out. You can have them sexed...
Woman 2: HEE HEE!
Woman 1: ...but I didn't. Normally, when they get a certain age, their feathers come in and you can tell what sex they are because the males are prettier.
Woman 2: It figures! Just like everywhere else -- CHAUVINISTS.
Woman 1: So I guess now I'm going to be having eggs now and then, which wouldn't be so bad except they usually break, and then theres blood all over.
Woman 2: You can't get them neutered? HEE HEE!

Woman 1: No.
