I just have to tell someone about this lady. The lady called me and wanted to know why I named my chickens such strange names. She also wanted to know if she could change their names. I tried to explain to her that I had not named them but she would not hear it. My ad lists the breed name ~ hatch date ~ price. NO NAMES!!! How on earth do these people make it through life? Okay thank you all for allowing me to rant a little
Yes my ad reads like Buff Orpington~ hatch date 4/19/09 ~ $$$ The list continues like that for about 15 or so lines. She thinks I named my chicken buff orpington!!!! I tried for about 10 minutes to explain that buff orpington is the type of chicken and NOT a pet name. I even gave her examples using dogs but she just wouldn't have it and almost seemed angry at me because she thought I named them taking the honor of naming them away from her. I told her she could name them whatever she would like and her response was," Since you have been calling them those strange names they probably won't respond to any name I give them so I will just look elsewhere"
Good she went away....Imagine if you sold he these chickens how many times she would call you and may even want to return then after 2 weeks because they were not laying eggs yet. LOL Now that could set your hair on fire
well before i got into chickens, i though a chicken was a chicken, no breeds.................. im assuming she thinks "Buff Orpington" Is a name. Mr.Buff Orpington.... i see him with glasses on
