Silly Flori-Duh---Florida may overturn ban on dyeing bunnies, chicks and other critters

Picture your bunnies neon green and your baby chicks a vivid purple.

Floridians will be able to get them in any color come July, unless Gov. Rick Scott vetoes a bill that would repeal a 45-year statewide ban on the dyeing of chicks, bunnies and other animals.

Scott has until Saturday — the day before Easter — to sign or veto the bill that has enraged animal activists locally and around the country.

What will he do? His office won't say.

"It's a shame," said Sharron Carmichael, who handles cruelty investigations for the Humane Society of Broward County. "It's archaic. It makes Florida look that much sillier."
