Also, demand a refund. He said he was worried I’d trash him on the Internet. Implied that if he gave me a refund, he hoped I wouldn’t. That pissed me off fiercely. I told him he wasn’t going to get to dictate what I do and I’m not malicious but don’t push it.
I also recorded that call because I...
Hi sorry… I wasn’t seeing notifications. Weird.
So I did get a refund and most of the chicks passed.
The Bresse that survived seem fine. But nothing spectacular. Not full grown yet.
Svarthona had pasty butt and died the next day.
The fugazi Ameraucana are exactly as I suspected they’d be...
Another update: we talked about his ameraucana (man my phone hates spelling that word, sorry if I inadvertently messed it up a dozen times above) and he agreed to stop calling them ameraucana and call them Easter eggers instead. Said he’d change his website info. He has not yet.
This, after he...
Just got off the phone, he refunded the whole order.
He said he could send the receipt for his Bresse… from greenfire. Not important at this point but I appreciate the offer.
Spoke about the amaraucana and he’s told me he’s going to call them Easter eggers. Can’t understand how the original...
He just tried again to convince me to take legbar because they have blue eggs like the amaracauna.
I just said- I have a farm. I know what a legbar is. If I wanted legbar, that’s what I’ll order. I wanted blue and black amaraucana because that’s what I already have.
The Bresse, he said now...
He responded and sent me a video of his amaracauna pen. They aren’t pure and you can see as much. Not a single one was the color represented in the website.
The white toe on the svarthona he says is spray paint. (Huh?) he marks those he treats. But I ordered unvaccinated chicks, day old.
As...
I’m sure there are, but I was trying to avoid exactly this situation. Everyone seems to “make their own”, and I wanted guaranteed pure.
Re: Bresse
Justin, before I even ordered, told me my Bresse would have lineage papers. I asked for them and he said they came with the birds. They did not...
I mean there’s two with zero face fluff at all- so those are for sure not even amaraucana, and one is black with a red mask. 🤣 so that’s going to be a redhead. 🤣
So what would you do? Wrath or write off?
The “bresse” are about that. The svarthona have less, and the fugazi amaracauna have way more.
The box shipped out at 5pm Tuesday and arrived at my post office yesterday at 10am. I picked them up at 2pm.
Unless they sat in a box the whole night or two prior, the amaraucana are older. Then the...
Jumping in here to add my experience with Bresse farms as of yesterday:
Ordered: 6 white bresse, 2 svarthona, 4 blue or black amaraucana.
2 extra bresse were included in my order. Two were crushed to death in shipping. So that part is a wash.
I sent Justin photos of the dead birds and he said...
