The way I got these two chicks is a bit unusual. They are chicks from Privet Hatchery that were sent in a final shipment to Tractor Supply nearby for their final Chick Days. I had dropped by to pick up a feed order and the manager lobbied me to take a few chicks off her hands. She had posted a 25 cent sale sign on the chick tanks.I don't know anyone with Sicilian Buttercup breed. Guess people on the forum don't either.
But your post was an interesting read. You never said where you got them from and why only 2 chicks?
I told her I wasn't interested in leghorns, which is what the remaining pullets were. She said slyly, "I have some others in the back. Sicilian somethings" I screamed, "Sicilian Buttercups?" "Yeah, that's it", she replies. "Sold!" Says, I.
She returned with the only two remaining Buttercups clutched in her hands and stuffed them in a take-home carton. She shoved the box into my hands and said, "I'm buying them for you." I walked out of the store with two free Buttercups.
