I'm thinking this guy is the one that needs to "wakeup." Wouldn't he be in for a rude awakening for what some hatching eggs cost?

No kidding! Someone should send them a link to one of the "idiot" auctions here on BYC...

That guy about the hatching eggs is sure rude! Makes me want to talk to him and set him straight, except not because I'm meek and don't like dealing with people with attitudes. $10 for a dozen hatching eggs is nothing!

Loving this thread as much as always! It always gives me a good chuckle. So many oddities on Craigslist, it's amazing! I must confess to occasionally cruising the personals ads for a few minutes in search of disasters. (Don't judge! I have what we on the internet refer to as "trainwreck syndrome.") Some of the things I have seen and read!

It took me a little while, but I finally figured out that these are probably spent hens from a commercial laying flock, correct?
