@shavixmir saidThe fossil record indicates that feathers first appeared in flightless cold-blooded creatures.
But wait. You wrote that birds evolved from cold blooded reptiles. But your link leads to birds evolving from dinosaurs. Which, according to you, are warm blooded.
It surely can’t be both?
What else are feathers good for than flying? Think duvet (quilt, sleeping bag). Get it now? Feathers were the insulation which facilitated the transition to maintaining body heat. A crucial evolutionary step.
@shavixmir saidWho said it cannot be both? Birds are descendants of dinosaurs. They both had feathers. They both evolved from reptiles if you go back far enough.

You are like some science illiterate person who thinks evolution says man evolved from a chimpanzee. NO! They have a common ancestor, but are on a different branch on the evolutionary tree.
Even mammals evolved from egg layers if you go back far enough.
@metal-brain saidDid dinos lay eggs?

Do reptiles lay eggs?
Why, to get back to your original theory, did the body temperature of birds evolve so they can lay eggs?
@moonbus saidWHAT’S THAT GOT TO DO WITH LAYING FUKKING EGGS???

@shavixmir saidAll right, I will bow out of this thread. Nix für Ugut.
Chickens. Temperature. Eggs.
And stop interfering when I’m toying with the gimp!

aluminum bats in the hands of an MLB hitter,
produce such velocity on the baseball that,
instead of broken bats, you would have players injured,
perhaps seriously, by batted balls. 😀
@shallow-blue saidNot in professional Baseball....
I've known baseball players to do so, but never an adult cricketer.
Highest level allowed alum/bats college ball.
