I hate that they don't let you choose your own chicks. If they aren't confident that you won't kill them, then why are they selling them to you in the first place?! Mine I got to choose. The guy realizes that I know more about them than he does and I know which chicks I want. My 4 and 5 year old children know how to handle chicks (even quail chicks) without hurting them even. Sheesh.
Unfortunately, I have to take the blame... I could have picked, in fact, I kind of did. I wanted the smallest one (thinking youngest), but I was in such a hurry, I didn't look and notice she was older and not well... My fault ...
