This is just sick.

Someone is selling dead, stuffed chicks and duckings on Ebay. I got an ad for it on BYC.

3 sold in the last 24 hours.
’Ornaments’ ‘Toys’
That’s just horrible.
And why on earth would I get an ad for it?? I’m definitely not one to look at taxidermy stuff.

Yuck. They look terrible. I got an ad for it a few months ago on here too. I don't think BYC is responsible for any of the ads.

Yeah. I was just like ‘Ooh, cute chicks.’
Then I wanted to barf once I realized what they were.

Yeah.
I can't imagine anyone wanting to buy those.

I'm going to check into that. You're right, that's horrible.

People do, apparently...

While it's definitely weird, I'm not sure it's particularly horrible. I mean, male chicks and ducklings get thrown into woodchippers or gassed or worse on a large scale at hatcheries, and we all know it and talk about it. If you buy a sexed chick from a hatchery chances are good a boy chick got impolitely discarded as a result and we still shop there and get advertisements from it...

I would be pretty cozy knowing they got turned into taxidermy animals instead, personally. That's better IMO than being chipped up. I just don't know what purpose you would buy them for. Staging photos without using live animals, maybe? It would probably be better/safer in many cases than using live baby animals. Dioramas perhaps?

It's strange for sure though.

 

[TheOddOneOut]

True...but like hatching chicks/ducks just to kill them?

 

[TheOddOneOut]

They never even got to live.
