Show birds, feed, and coops were stolen from The Poultry Palace in Placerville, CA, last night!
I work at a little place called The Poultry Palace, in El Dorado County, CA. At the store we have a small indoor shop, which is locked up at night, and a area in the back with a 6 foot chainlink fence - inside the area, our hatchery pullets and a few of our show-quality breeders are kept. Last night somebody climbed the fence and stole two high-quality show Seramas, half of a box coop (they didn't realize it came unassembled in two boxes), and a bag of feed. This comes on the heels of the mysterious disappearance of another show quality rooster a month or so ago, and an old half-full feed bag that was being used to tie down a tent out front which was stolen in broad daylight sometime in the last two days.
We are desperate to find these birds. The feed and coops are replaceable (though we would like to have them back as well) but these birds are not. Here are images of the two birds taken last night. The Spangled male and Black female are the ones taken, though the frizzled male was found wandering the grounds this morning. I don't have pictures of the rooster taken last month, but he was a Silver True Ameraucana of a bit smaller than standard size.
If you know anything, anything at all, please contact me.
(Will soon be crossposting this to a bunch of other places)
