A farm in the northern US state of Alaska has given Easter egg decoration a whole new meaning. Triple D Farm and Hatchery, in Palmer, injects the eggs with dye to produce multi-coloured baby chicks.

Children visiting the farm in the run-up to Easter were met with more than 400 orange, red, green, purple, pink and blue chickens and ducks. […]

The dye, which the farm insists does not contain chemicals, is injected into ordinary chicken eggs a few weeks before Easter.

…does not contain chemicals? Nasty, evil chemicals? Ooooh!

I suppose they think that chemicals are only to be found in weapons of mass destruction nowadays.
