Dong tao chicks

[LukebotTectonic]

It seems realistic except that they have a 1 out of 5 rating on the page and I had been told it takes over a year to exhibit the stocky legs to show, and those young ones shown are less than a year, I'm sure of it. However I could be wrong about what age they start to develop

One of the ratings was from a woman who deleted her review a few days after I contacted them. Still don't know what happened but I still have hope!

I'll probably pm them tonight or tomorrow and see what prices and guarantees they have (I'd prefer chicks, but ain't risking shipping if there's nothing saying I won't be screwed if chicks don't at least somewhat make it)

Okay, that's ibterestibg. It was the only rating posted so maybe her issue got fixed

I did a reverse image search on one of their other pictures. Well maybe did not find multiple other user names, they originated from the same FB page. However one says "this is a sham, I almost fell for it but realized just in time.."

I'd err on the side of caution here. This isn't the first time I've seen those exact pictures which makes me leary. We might not find them because they're old and have been taken down by now...

I emailed them about some questions I had. I'd say be careful before being 100% sure on your purchase, I really want to believe that this isn't a scam but you can never really know on the internet.

They sent me pictures of the adults and I couldn't reverse image search them. I can't drive all the way down to Akron, Ohio as I don't have my drivers license yet and I doubt my family would go on a road trip to get them. Heres the picture they sent me.

Reverse image search on this one took me to a different yet similar FB page:
https://www.facebook.com/Dong-Tao-healthy-chicken-for-sale-100434971725754/

than the one that was linked earlier in this thread:
https://www.facebook.com/Dong-Tao-chicken-for-sale-622676318371452/

The oldest posts I could find on either was June 2020 and August 2020. Two separate pages with the almost same name almost same start time and same email for contacting them and no reviews to check. Nothing is saying to me that this is honest. When something does not make sense it is usually false aka a scam.

Unfortunately true.

Maybe see if they'd be willing to pm a pic of one of their birds with something they can't fake easily? Like with a thing that has the date? That's what we're told to do with online saying at least to be sure the pictures are legitimate

According to the Internet, an adult pair of Dong Tao recently sold for $2500. Fifty a chick with no real communication just sounds suspicious to me. It warrants some homework, for sure - a farm address, or a name to search, maybe?

Sadly it looks like a scam, I reverse image searched that yet I didn't find those pictures so sorry about that. If I deceived anyone then I apologize. Im hoping they respond to my email, so, just like what JacinLarkwell said, I can get a true image with the date. Rather sad, I was pretty excited however I will thank you all for saving me from a potential scammer. Hoping for the best though!

Let us know if you get a picture that seems trustworthy
