I just read this in the BYC FB group. Reposting here for those that don't do FB:


A conversation I had yesterday morning...seriously:
Me: Hello?
Person: Hi. I heard you haVe chicks for sale.
Me: yes I do. What can I help you with?
Person: I have a couple of questions first.
Me: Okay. I will do my best to answer them.
Person: Do you have vegitarian chickens?
Me: Um...what?
P: Yes, I only want vegitarian chickens. I don't want chickens that eat bugs and frogs and stuff.
Me: Uh, well, can I explain...
P: Also, are all of your chicks freerange? I don't believe they should be in cages.
Me: Well, they are only a week or so old, so...
P: And I need them to be litter trained, because I don't want them pooping everywhere.
Me: Wait...WHAT????
P: And I want 3 roosters and 3 hens each, but I only want breeds that don't crow because I am in the city.
Me: So, let me get this You want vegitarian, litter trained, free range babies that won't make noise. Correct?
P: Exactly! When can I come get some?
Me: I am so sorry. We are all sold out of those for the rest of the year.
P: Oh, darn. I told my husband we should have ordered earlier.
Me: Wow. Okay. Thank you for calling.
Side note...hot coffee coming up through the nose hurts very very much, as does th resulting choking on it.
(cross posted, so if you have seen this...I apologize. And no, this seriously was not a prank call.)

Sad but too true...there are too many people out there getting animals they know nothing about! This person actually handled that call very well. I'm not sure I would have been that polite.
