  1. Years ago, I was talking about chickens with someone when they suddenly started talking about how cute it was when hens breastfed chicks. I kinda gaped at them with a slack jaw when I realized they weren’t kidding. What made it much, MUCH worse was that they were in school studying to be a vet tech.

    I had to give them a remedial biology lesson about the differences between birds and mammals.

    They ended up not becoming a vet tech, after all. Can’t imagine why. #education #biology #mammals #birds #VetTech

  2. Join the Freedom Scientific Training Team and Blinded Veterans Association on Wednesday, May 8 at at 2 PM ET for the VetTech webinar: An Overview of Vispero Video Magnifiers. Webinar details: bva.org/vettech/

  3. Time for a new #Introduction since I just migrated servers. I came to Mastodon several months ago as part of the #TwitterMigration. It's SOOO much nicer here!

    I'm a semi-retired #VetTech, former Twittter #resistance, and political junkie. Interested in #News, #Politics, and Conversation.

    Feel Free to hit me up with recommendations for good accounts to follow! I typically #followback unless I see red flags that scare me off.

    Does anyone have experience / tips re. #Malassezia in #dogs?

    I have questions! Will ALL his hair fall out? Will it grow back?

    #Cytology → Malassezia → #Malaseb

    Otherwise healthy, and well cared for, Forest has a problem - these bunches of hair 'stick out' and I can then just pull them off 😭

  5. Via Boston 25 News: Pet owners concerned after Massachusetts seeing veterinarian shortage at ‘crisis’ levels

  6. GRAIN FREE FOOD IS KILLING DOGS!
    Now that I have your attention. We in the veterinary community have been telling people this for YEARS. Unless your vet prescribes it, your dog is better off with grain. Grain contains more proteins, sugars, and nutritive value overall than is found in tapioca, pea, lentil, potato, sweet potato, and other alternative carbohydrate flours.

    ***VET WANTED***

    No-nonsense, mask-wearing vet wanted in #Ireland

    I don't expect #DavosStandard, but simple precautions like ventilation between customers' visits, plus 😷 would be appreciated.

  8. #Introductionpost
    Hello #Fediverse! I've been here for about a week, but never made an official #introduction post. I'm here as part of the great #Twittermigration. Tired of all the negativity & outrage over there.
