    Outsourcing more...

    Well the whole idea of giving your own "mother's milk" might go against the grain deep down biologically...although we do see a similar type of thing in the wild...momma birds feeding other bird species. You can look that up if you need more info but you'll see the absolute giant bird feeding much much tinier chicks..

    Not really sure what to think of this but we're already outsourcing so many different things now, all kinds of labor and services.
