Yay! Raspberries and eggs oh my! My postal worker informed me that I'll soon be known as the crazy chicken lady, LOL!
We've lived here for maybe a month and already when I walk in, they address me by name and ask how all the eggs and birds are doing, lol.

Ok guys. The person emailed me back and this was there response:

Ok please let me know if I am in the wrong or not. I was expecting all chocolate orps not any split according to the auction and Also chick boxes do not cost $20-$30 I was not born yesterday and I ship all the time. I am really getting peeved. Anyway here is what both the auctions say:

Quote:
No where does it say I will be getting splits. Also the pics are way too hard to see if they are not all chocolate but that doesn't matter the auction states Chocolates not Splits. Am I over reacting or did I not get what I paid for.

Here are the only pics for both auctions:

I don't think you are. For one those chicken boxes cost maybe $10 when bought in bulk and most people do tack that on to shipping. I have no problems with that. I would never ship birds in an express box like that. How cruel. Now the one picture you can see 2 black chicks but his auction should state chocolates and splits. No where does it say these are the actual chicks you are getting either.

uumm two of those pictures are stillbeing used SO obviously not everyone is getting the birds pictured. Just sayin

I have a question for all you breeders out there. I already know the answer I think but want to see what others think. I have the brahma chicks which range in color from white, blue columbian to straight blue. Most are looking great, the whites are stunning. The blues, I have noticed 2 have what appear to be vulture hocks. It's pretty evident when it looks like they have wings on their legs. Correct me if I am wrong but I'm assuming these won't magically go away as they age. The others have nice soft feathers. So I take it these 2 need to be culled. Culled as in put down, not rehomed for someone else to breed. I really prefer to put down any genetically wrong bird so it doesn't have a chance to pass on the genes. Is this what others would do?

I agree with Madam, and of course you Reese.

On a funny note I've been wrapping eggs and dealing with naughty monsters. I think they need a bird shipping box.

. Tiny Timmy, Alex's little guy, is my muffin thief from yesterday. He's found that popping bubble wrap is fun.

Sonny would willingly label the shipping carton to get rid of him.

We have three more loud mouths down in the basement that Sonny has taken to calling turdeys. I think she's trying to say turkey, but who knows with her.
