Talk:Jem'Hadar
From Memory Alpha, the free Star Trek reference.
Does anyone else feel that the fact that Jem'Hadar are bred in hacheries seems to indicate that they come from eggs? Jaf 05:05, 21 March 2006 (UTC)Jaf
- No, hatchery has become a generic term that doesn't need to imply "hatching". Jaz talk | novels 05:09, 21 March 2006 (UTC)
- That's not what I'm finding. Answers.com says - hatch·er·y (hăch'ə-rē) pronunciation n., pl. -ies. "A place where eggs, especially those of fish or poultry, are hatched" and wikipedia says "A hatchery is a facility where eggs are hatched under artificial conditions, especially those of fish or poultry".

Is that intravenous tube on the side of the soldiers' necks the thing that supplies the ketracel-white to them? I know it's a prop present to make a point of their need and addiction for the white, but did they ever tape those things down or at least tuck them under armor? It would've been kind of gruesome if an author (or if portrayed in the show) if the tube were ripped out in hand-to-hand combat or just plain shot off. Just a thought.

- Yes, that tube is where the ketracel-white is pumped into their bloodstream. If I recall correctly, the tube was always present, even in battles. A bit of a disadvantage since someone could just yank it out, like pulling out a wire from a Borg drone's neck, but they apparently didn't worry about it. --From Andoria with Love 03:10, 15 November 2006 (UTC)
- several times in close quarters combat with them the Klingons,Bajoran ,and Federation soldiers are depicted taking advantage of this apparent flaw,though one could also reason,that the Jem"Hadar are so devoted to fighting and combat,that they display such unmitigated ferocity,that they completely go without armour and shielding unlike others,a testament to their berserker mentality,and warrior's bloodlust.Wejvagh 06:19, 25 February 2007 (UTC)
