Eaglepedia Revisited February 28, 2008 The Egg - Part III * albumen is: --------90% water & 10% protein --------the embryo's water supply, but also serves as a 'shock-absorber' to help protect the embryo --------buffers embryo from sudden changes in temperature * shell membranes are: --------attached to the shell are two membranes, the inner and outer shell membranes. They protect the egg from bacterial invasion and help prevent rapid evaporation of moisture from the egg. * shell: --------protects the embryo --------contains thousands of pores (see diagram below) that permit gas exchange --------generally white in cavity-nesters & colored and patterned in open nesters (for camouflage) --------color is added to the eggshell from pigments secreted by cells in the wall of the uterus http://people.eku.edu/ritchisong/avianreproduction.html ![]() Keratin fibers from the outer shell membrane can be seen above, attached to the calcium carbonate crystals that make up the main shell structure. (keratin is like our fingernails) ![]() Thousands of tiny pores like the one pictured above, cover the shell, providing a passage for gas exchange. ![]() ![]() ![]() Visit Eaglepedia DISCLAIMER: Information here has been gathered in good faith from the internet and cannot be guaranteed to be totally accurate. |

off to see the dr. shortly - probably last finger visit and I'd almost bet today will also be last therapy visit ....... she's obsessed with making my finger straight and I keep telling her it won't be happening! it's frustrating her to no end and of course that's not why I'm seeing her so.... I can do the stretches and stuff on my own. gotta get myself packed up and on the way ..... will check in later Again - if you missed 'em - take a moment to visit the IWS Updates - as always - AWESOME!!!

oh and about eaglepedia revisited above - I'm still amazed about all the holes in an egg shell - of course if I had just stopped and thought about it - duh ...... but very interesting! That's why Dr. Sharpe covered them in tegaderm while in the IWS nursery, if they were losing too much moisture - thru the shell!

Hi all! @#$#$ red birdy woke me up again! He seems to always advertise for hens under my br window at sunrise this time of year. I am half tempted to dump a bucket of water out my window to give him a cold shower but i dont participate in any animal cruelty. Observation on the Blackwater twins. Theyve really gotten large now and are being given time alone by thier parents. Am uploading a clip from the estonian sea eagle cam site that i shall share if i dont have problems with photobucket. The estonians seem to have a great camera hookup and the video is tack sharp!
