Dang IFA employees--I was standing around the chickies today, trying to convince myself I had more than my share already...the IFA guy tells some people looking at chicks that Ameraucanas lay 3/week, and GSL's lay 4/week. The people ask if that is the most you can get per week and he says ya, 4/week is the max. Of course, I cannot stop myself from saying it...."you can ACTUALLY get 7/week from the GSL's." ..the IFA guy argues with me. " No ya can't. No chicken can lay that many eggs". I ask if he has ever had chickens.....nope. Doofus. The people probably think I am crazy. Just wait til those 4 GSL's they bought lay 28 eggs in one week....he he.
Speaking of doofus IFA employees, there is a gal out at our North store that we tease is the chicken nazi. She won't let you touch them. She won't let you buy only one at a time. She swears they are purebred Ameraucanas. She stands between you and the chicks like she is their Mother Hen and she is an offensive lineman protecting the QB. I hate buying chicks when she is in there, because I can't get a look at their feathers, wings, tails, legs ,nothing, she just grabs one and shoves it in the box and closes it and hands it to you. I was totally poised to get myself a Delaware Chickie, then she walked in to start her shift. She gave me the stink eye. "not you again"...that is what she was thinking....I owe it to her that i was able to come home Chick-less today. 300 pounds of feed, no chicks. I am set for a month at least. Thank you Chicken Nazi woman. Whoever you are. I don't like you much but you did me a favor
I know what you mean about those employes, but there are those ones out there that gladly excepts help. I stopped at Cal Ranch on 7800 s and 2700 w just after they got their chicks. They had the the barred rocks and the blacks sex links in the wrong pens, they had them switched. I told an employ and he asked if i was sure they were wrong and i said yes they are. He walked away and came back with two big boxes and switched the chicks. I would have not said anything but this happened to me when i was looking for red sex links and ended up with BO. I wonder if your Nazi is the same one that worked at IFA in American Fork. She dosent work there any more but she is the reason i had so many Bantams. She told me i had to buy twice as many as i wanted because they were very frail and only half would make it. Well geuss what SHES WAS A BIG FAT LIAR.
