I asked for $250.00 for my IB peahen. I think that might have been low, but I was just trying to keep it simple. I looked at the top prices I could find for IB hens, and made her price somewhere in the middle. She was 10 years old (would've been 11 this year) very tame, trusting, friendly...
I texted the person back that requested the phone "conference call" and said that I didn't see what there was to discuss, and that I would prefer not to keep rehashing the situation as it was painful for me. I told them to either submit their questions in writing or, if they insisted on...
