A day in the life: poo girl

Well, today it's spit girl. So so in addition to other excreta, you can also measure hormones in saliva. I had a few extra spaces on a cortisol (stress hormone) plate, so I decided we should see how stressed our vets and vet nurses are. They all got into it, which was fun! One of the vet/vet nurse teams was doing a big procedure that didn't go as smoothly as they hoped, and you can totally see their stress levels shoot up - even the nurse, who was just standing by as the vet was doing stuff! All kinds of fun projects in a hormone lab!

  1. Whoever said, "You don't know shit" didn't know Kerry. But who ever referred to a "spittin' image" apparently did. Who was that person?
