sadly they do not want to give us our money back either. They would not even listen to a partial refund or anything of that sort. At this point on principle I'm considering taking them to small claims court it really isn't even about the money just the attitude they have displayed.
I realize this is honest too and we made a mistake and now we are paying for it.
Just to clarify: You just bought these birds, at this age and looking like this and you were told they were females? If that is the case, its certainly not an honest mistake on the part of the seller. No way anyone who has had birds for any length of time would think they were hens. Its actually probably fraud if they did.
But, if you bought them when they were 6-8 weeks old or younger, it is possible to make a mistake with late maturing birds. the seller shoudl still make things right.
All that being said, around here, those birds would bring about $15.00 each at auction as roosters.
I think if it were me, and I bought them off craigslist or an ad somewhere, I'd take out my own ad, with pictures, and describe the situation, clearly naming the seller. Worst case scenario, you help someone else and keep them from being duped by an unethical seller, best case, they refund your money and ask you to call off the dogs.
I really am sorry this happened to you.
