When I was still in college, I had a chance to assist on a masteral thesis of one of the instructors of the College of Veterinary Medicine. I could say I almost did all the work. I picked up the box of chicks from the Agri-Vet Store, weighed each one and put wing bands on their tiny wings. Everyday I feed all 110 heads, clean their cages and the waterers and then refill it with clean water. I enjoyed getting their weights every week and seeing them turn from chicks to chicken. When the study ended on the 45th day, the dirty work is over and the paper work is yet to begin. At that time there’s no computer rental around town, good that one student has her own pc which she offered to use.
