I am saying I didn’t know whether you needed a Rooster for a hen to lay eggs. I suspect they didn’t know either.
Doing a search on the internet shows that a lot of people don’t know and wonder if a rooster is needed for the egg.
Why kill the hen before the rooster...because they thought they needed the rooster for the eggs. It’s their lack of knowledge on the subject - which is not uncommon on this question. That is what I am getting at.
There it is. For a million dollars, one would think that after all these seasons someone would learn to do a bit of research on this sort of thing. They've had chickens on and off since Season I when Jena named theirs Breakfast, Lunch, and dinner (ok those happened to be all hens, iirc). Same with fire, was Jane the only contestant in all these years to think some fire making skill might come in handy? And so many along the way didn't know how to swim or use a sling shot or how to build a shelter and like, duh, to turn the opening away from the prevailing winds and rains. And their attire! Sure, let's wear poorly made clothes so that they fall apart first thing and did you get a load of Ghetto's shoes?!? At least the men have sense enough to put on a shirt and pants when it gets cold while the bikini (or bra and panties - what, we needed swimwear on the beach?!?) clad women are clueless. Most of it is common sense, but for a million dollars, I'd have at least rented every season's video and tried to learn from past mistakes. Those who don't learn from history are doomed to repeat it and Mark Burnett plays off that every year.
