Mangalore: Ande ka funda! Chick emerges out of egg without incubation by hen

Mangalore, Apr 25: Which came first - the chicken or the egg? This dilemma has stumped philosophers and all of humanity since time immemorial, even leading to theories on beginning and evolution of life.

In an unusual incident reported at Pakshikere, a chick came out of the egg, without incubation by the hen.

 

 

In a telling sign of the increasingly sweltering weather, the egg hatched reportedly due to the heat.

The incident occured at Padmanabha Belchada near Jarandaya temple at Pakshikere. Being a rural area, people here have domesticated hens in their houses.

Their hen had laid about 25 eggs twice in the past  Padmanabha had kept about 20-21 eggs in a plastic bag.  The hen rarely sat on the eggs apparently due to the hot weather.

However, a chick has broken the shell and come out of the egg on its own. Two more chicks are also about to come out.  It appears that natural heat was sufficient for the eggs to get incubated.

    Modi followers will say it is due to Modi (Hot) wave.
    RSS says it is a Gujarat Model.
    Cong says it is due to their Empowerment of Eggs.
    OR the BJP & CONG both together will blame it on Kejriwal.

    This is Not Surprising. Because the eggs were kept in a Shed which had Tin sheet Roof which becomes so hot during day time now a days that you can make an omelette on it. Secondly, that shed is of pump-set running daily and producing heat inside the shed daily and the eggs were hung in a plastic bag near the pump set which created more heat. This is the reason why the eggs hatched without incubation from mother hen. Artificial incubation in hatcheries follows a similar formula, that is to heat the eggs with electric heater at a fixed temperature.

    If an egg is broken by force from outside 'Life Ends'
    If an egg hatches within from inside
    'Life Begins'.........
    The idea is therefore to begin an 'inward journey' at some point without giving much importance to the outer.........
