Wow that would have been pretty. I love my Barred Rock Cochin boy I got from you last year. Hubby named him Sumo Joe, he is so fun to watch and a good roo to the girls. He has come to a hen's preceded danger and stuck with until I took care of the danger. I hope your girl gets better soon, she is pretty.
It never ceases to amaze me how many colors a cochin can come in. Then you add the frizzle gene on top of that and it's like there's no two alike.
Papa I have had a time with the Rome, TSC, I almost called the corporate number, ok looked at the chicks today and I was debating on getting a few bantams, but notice one really sick and some had severe pasty butt, so I asked the "girl" if she was busy and if someone was manning the chick station, she said I can help do you need chicks, Me: No I just want to bring something to your attention, Girl: ok, Me: Look at that sick chick, if you clean it up it might make it, but see how the wings are down, and it can't poop, and look at the others that are just caked with poop, can you do something, Girl: No I'm busy and I will let someone know, when that guy gets off the computer I have to print up some signs, (she is eating a hershey candy bar and I observed her just wandering around) so I said can I talk to your manager, Girl:I'm one of the managers, Me: oh and and I 'd like to talk to your manager, so she tells the guy on the computer to go get, William. Computer guy comes back and said he's busy can I help you, no I want to talk to your manager, but he is busy, I am a customer and I am requesting that I speak to your manager, go get him or get him on the phone, guy gets ****** and go back to get William, computer guy comes back and said he will be with you when he can, I said ok, follow me I need help with one of the tubs outside, Computer guy: ok I need to get a pricing gun and goes to the back, comes back and we start to go outside, another customer says she needs help so he leaves me standing there and just walks off to go help the other customer, William comes out and I explain the situation and he said he will address it with "Susan" I asked is that her real name and he said yes, but something tells me Papa that may be the girl you call Ann, she is slight red headed, Oh and and the really great girl that came from another TSC to our TSC I asked where has she been, she left, I believe her name was Renae I know I spelled it wrong, Customer service at its best oh and these were not 16 year olds
I haven't seen Renee in there in quite a while. The last couple years I've had some really good chicken discussions with her. I hate to see her go. April (not Ann) is kinda blond, but it wouldn't surprise me if she had died her hair, LOL
Yeah, if your going to sell live stock, then you should properly take care of it, know most people think "Their just chickens" but it's still an animal and that gives them the right to be cared for. Ok that is my rant, good thing I didn't have your number with me!!! I will just have to not look at the chicks when I go in, and they sure had some really cute ducks,, I so want some but I don't live near or have a pond. I did have one years ago and I did buy "Plucky" a 4' x 5' after summer sale pool, and I'd but bait fish in it and watch her go, something to see how they swim underwater and catch em, they are so fast, Plucky yeah and the fish, and she like me to push her underwater and forward at the same time, she would back up so I could do it again, playtime, neighbors kid took pellet gun practice while she was in the pool. Never had another spoiled duck.
After all, I need to hatch some of those "robin" eggs.
