Do we restrict the answer set for the puzzle to be nonnegative integers? Clay

Partial chickens have lived for months after having their heads chopped off. You use an eyedropper to feed it in the neck! Clay

So, does this mean their egg- laying is a Brownian motion process? Can a whiteening filter help? Maurice Givens

Can a whiteening filter help?If you ever chickens that produce white eggs, such a filter might help to separate them from the brown ones.
