I would do something like this.
One time I hid in the laundry basket for 45 minutes so I could scare my husband when he got home from work.

Not craigslist but ....

Oh, where to begin what's wrong here?

I'm sure the "big chicks" are only $1 because they keep flying up and pooping (or drowning) in the water. I actually saw one running around outside the bin.

The electrical cords from heat lamps were hanging down from the octopus-like outlet strip.

Then there's either some fun spelling or new breeds.
The Barred Rook could just be messy handwriting but perhaps it will grow into a big crow-like bird. Or maybe it's fair warning that customers are about to get "rooked."

Of course, the "Butt Op-ring-Ton" was my favorite.

My sensitive, soft spot wanted to "save" some, but logically, why should I give money to a store that doesn't care properly for its chicks? After all the transport and store stress, it was a big risk I'd get sick or dead chicks once home, and buying them would only help perpetuate poor management.
