Oh Craigslist, You Amuse Me So!

I had to post this one in this thread. I emailed this poster and told her that there was NO SUCH THING as a Barbado Goat. It's either a Babado Sheep OR a Goat.

Initial Ad (Before I emailed her.)

Did you see where she said

"sheep/goat whichever you prefer to call it"

????????????????? HUH? Seriously? Really?

So, if someone is selling a dog, do you say "dog/cat whichever you prefer to call it"???

I give up. I tried to help her.​

You TRIED!!!

Oh well. What does that mean, she wants to recoup the cost of milk? From when the doe was pregnant? Maybe because I don't have goats/sheep (or whichever you want to call them

) I don't know what that means.​

Hey, this is the guy with chikens and rosters again, only now they're exceedingly special. They have changed what type of animal they are over time.

As this ad reads, the "rosters" were once rabbits, small pot belly pigs, and "calf's":

CHICKENS ROSTER (LOOMIS )

(ETA: I think he just needs a little help with posting ... may have perfectly good healthy animals and do not want to discourage anyone from contacting him, which is why I X'd out the posting ID and contact info.)
