Oh Craigslist, You Amuse Me So!

What gets me is that people have these fancy breeds(although some aren't that fancy) and they don't know how to spell the breed. If I had a computer I would be looking the breeds up to see what I could learn about them!How can you operate a computer and not spell Rhode Island!
And it never fails when I put in my location in the ad ,They always ask ,"Where are you located?" Duh ! look it up on a map!

We had one of those here too. Great Pyr, bad with chickens but good with kids. So maybe it was a kid gaurdian dog?

I found one the other day that stated "chickens are trained to stay in the yard"

That reminds me of a yuppie guy who moved to a rural neighborhood from the city. He was ticked off that they put a "deer crossing" sign in the middle of the neighborhood. He went to the town board and requested the sign be moved so the deer would take a different route!

And my sister...who is not into animals, farms, etc...was driving from NH to Houston, TX. I told her there was a breeder there that had hatching eggs I really wanted, could she pick some up on her way back northeast? She said it was fine, but what if they start hatching in the car?

I had no words. I ordered them through the mail instead! I must be the apple that fell far from the tree.

Just DON"T LET THEM DRIVE is all. Hatchlings are wicked aggressive on the road.

Sorry, couldn't resist. Have a good day!​

Mostly what i have seen are the misspelled names. Road iland reds, americanas, dominike... and then the non-specific adds, like "Laying hens $5"
So far no laugh-out-loud adds. But im looking!

I saw one yesterday, where someone was selling chickens. Price was 2.25 a pound, I believe. The title included the phrase "Our Chickens Don't Shrink!"

This one momentarily amused me (though it's not CL)

"Unlike other chains, our chickens WANT to be deep fried at a young age."

fed an "herby" feed, so they are "marinated from the day they are born"

"healthy, especially for girls hitting puberty"
