Help: Due to liars, looking for barred plymouth rock chicks for our daughter's bday

[oldcircusbread]

Unfortunately, after ordering 2 hens and a rooster from Franny's Farm in Leicester, NC, and them being complete flakes in not responding to emails and requiring constant calls and emails to get them to give us status update and respond to questions about dates and shipping, constantly, they were supposed to ship our two hens and our rooster today (small backyard order). We've had a nine year old waiting for four weeks, and this was her birthday present. We found out they lied to us (they told us their post office wasn't shipping due to COVID19). After calls to post offices, we found out they were lying to us, and nobody told them that. When we called back to tell them they could ship, they told us they sold our birds to someone from NC who drove to the farm to pick them up. So this is in part a review telling others to boycott Franny's Farm in Leicester, NC as a small breeder who has disappointed our nine year old who has been waiting since 4/1 (her birthday is 4/20) for these birds patiently which were a part of her birthday present.

Second, it's a search for anyone here who may have heritage Barred Plymouth Rocks and might be able to help us out. I'll pay premium for shipping and birds.

I'm so sorry to hear this! I'm afraid I don't have any, but if you need a reliable hatchery you can try Meyer or Cackle. Hope your daughter has a good b-day and gets her chicks!
