Quoth notalwaysright View PostI hate when SCs do this! I spend all kinds of time helping them, and they make a point to tell me that there's "never anyone available to help" or "no one knows where anything is" or whatever.Knowledge is power. Power corrupts. Study hard. Be evil.

Researching what was needed for a bird should have been the first step, not the last. And he should have either gone to a pet store or a co-op that deals with farms. Or *gasp* even researched it all online first.
Given how little research he did, I'm going to assume that someone passed him an infertile chicken egg and he just thinks it's a raptor egg. I'm going to hope with all my might that's all he has, because no living creature (not even a flea) deserves to deal with that level of ignorance and stupidity.If I make no sense, I apologize. I'm constantly interrupted by an actual toddler.

On topic, yeah, I don't see anyone, not even on Craigslist, handing over a fertile falcon egg to someone who isn't prepared/trained to care for it.Sorry, my cow died so I don't need your bull

As far as I can tell, this could be one of a couple of things.
1, If he is in the store all the time buying random stuff - he could just be lonely and this is his way of finding people to talk to because he is bored being on his own all the time
2, He really is a weirdo who has no idea at all what a Hawk's egg looks like and is going to try and hatch a hard boiled chicken egg

*I* think The Falconer hit all the branches on his way down from his nest-robbing expedition. A tip to the Gubmint seems very much in order.I am not an a**hole. I am a hemorrhoid. I irritate a**holes!

I'm actually beginning the process of becoming a Falconer. I should be starting my apprenticeship sometime this year.
More often than not, Falconers trap juvenile raptors (birds of prey) and then raise them and teach them to hunt and typically release them back into the wild. Some will keep one bird to stay by them and hunt with for their lifetime though.
...they don't really get the eggs and incubate them...My Writing Blog -Updated 05/06/2013
It's so I can get ideas out of my head, I decided to put it in a blog in case people are bored or are curious as to the (many) things in progress.
