[CHICKENS-101] Kindness of craigslist :-)

 

I recently was browsing craigslist and found FREE farm animals. Not getting hopes up and just inquiring to the post I learned there was some bantams for giveaway. I was leery as they are free.... so we planned for quarantine and went to get them. Taking precautions on Monday eve I made the husband go with me. Expectations was not high at all. As I approach in the dark it is a very rutted out driveway. Luckily I have the truck as the car would not have made it. We arrive at this very nice house and super sweet lady. 
I was completely shocked when I seen the chickens. They are very healthy in appearance and nice demeanor! She then referred me to a fried who want to downsize also. 
As I made contact with the friend I learned she also had some geese to get rid of also. I went yesterday morning and checked the situation out. I arrived at this beautiful ranch with a gated entry. The chickens again looked great! I even have a salmon faverolle pair. I have them al situated and the pecking order seems to be doing well. I must say I usually have the too good to be true motto but this is one instance it was proven wrong. She also had a few of the geese I have been wanting for give away. I will be bringing them home this weekend. YAY! 

Thought I'd share and let every one know to not give up on society! There is still some good!
