I went to Tractor Supply and my feed store to get stuff to be ready for chicks (either bought from either local or ordered) I went to TSC first and bought what I needed from there (the things that were cheaper than feed store) They had chicks already and I almost bought some until the guy asked what I wanted, I told him (Ameraucauna and Buff Orp) He started to load the box with these black chicks. I asked what kind those were (not fully positive of what Ameraucauna chicks look like) he said they were Buff Orpingtons!!! WHAT!!!! NO so I said never mind, that BOs are not black, he said sure they are. I asked if they had a book I could look at that showed chicks, he said yes brought it out and turned to the page with info on the BOs and pointed to the pic of black chicks next to it. (next page had pics of adult and chicks...some other breed) I flipped the info page over and it had pics of BOs. Guy was an idiot!! So I bought what I needed and left. I get to the feed store, I go to open the door and I see the lights are on in the troughs (last time I was there no chicks...no lights) so I don't look and get the stuff I need, but I hear the cute peep peep peep and have to look on my way out and notice they have Ameraucauna pullets. I got 2 of them (Naomi and Wynona - the Judds) 1 Rhode Island Red (Reba), and 1 Barred Rock (Crystal - after Crystal Gayle).
