This has to be the worst case of Tractor Supply mislabeling something that I have ever seen. Not only did the get the breed wrong, they didn't even get the species right.

I told them after I bought them that they may want to stop telling people these are leghorns since, you know, they're not even chickens.

Oh, I also bought four dominiques to round out the six bird minimum purchase. Who upon further inspection have single combs. So they're not dominiques. Oh Tractor Supply.

love the leghorns! i miss my turkeys
