EDIT: It wouldn't let me edit the photos on the old post. So I had to delete the post and repost it. I feel these photos and informed are important to add. For those of you who commented on the last post with support. Thank you 🙏🥹 It means so much to me to see your support!
There is a small group of individuals going around spreading alot of false information about this page. Some zombie breeders used 1 unhappy customer and used her story against my daughter. And all joined in on attacking her. Its sad that thr customer got sucked into their drama. And sad that my dauggter cant live in peace.... I'm really tired of seeing my daughter hurt because of it.
ACCUSATION #1- One of these people are telling people that we shipped using "Priority Mail" and not "Priority Express Mail". Which is 💯 FALSE. I have attached a photo of her label that shows it was shipped using 1-Day Express. I have photos of every single box/receipt that have my daughter has shipped. WE KEEP RECIPTS OF EVERYTHING!
ACCUSATION #2- She's also telling people that we shipped using Hot Hands? That's 💯 FALSE too! We only use 40 hour heat packs that are safe and approved for shipping animals. ✔️ Nothing else.
ACCUSATION #3- This little hate group is also stating we don't use the correct boxes. In the photos below you will see the boxes we use. These are all USPS APPROVED boxes. And the same boxes other farms/hatcheries use.
We ALWAYS ship woth the correct boxes, bedding, heat packs and we add hydration gel & soft fruits to ensure they have nutrition during their trip. NEVER has my daughter ever done anything differently.

This specific customer placed an order for 3 chicks and then placed a 2nd order for a few more chicks. When hatch day came only a few of the breeds hatched. (This was when we had the power outage and lost 50% of our eggs). So the customer asked if we could ship the 3 chicks that were ready now and ship the rest later. My daughter tried explaining to her that she thought it was best to WAIT until the other chicks hatched. That way she could ship more of them in 1 box. Especially since it was winter and very cold. But the customer was very inpatient and didn't want to wait. So I told my daughter to go ahead and ship her chicks of that's what she wants.
We waited for a day that was 35°F and above on both the shipper and receivers end. My daughter added two 40 hour heat packs and hydration gel inside a clear bowl that was fastened to the side of the box. Then shipped the chicks 1-Day Express.
The next day, the customers chicks did not arrive as scheduled. So we waited patiently. On the 3rd day, the chicks arrived to the customers post office DOA.
We spoke with said customer back and fourth over the next few weeks. Filed the claim for her. And kept in close contact. I even spoke to her on the phone myself several times during the transaction and after. Everything was fine.
After several weeks USPS still has not accepted the claim. It took them almost 2 months and denied the claim. I don't know why. We did everything that USPS asked & requested. I informed the customer that the claim had been denied. And told her that I will happily send her free chicks in her 2nd shipment to replace the ones that died.
At this point the customer got very rude and demanding and only wanted full refunds. I explained to her that this was not our fault. Nor hers. But I would happily replace the chicks free of charge when I shipped her next order.
A few days later she starts making NASTY posts about my daughter's page in random groups. She is telling people that we used the wrong boxes, that we didn't ship using express Mail, etc. Some of the things she said about my daughter is horrific! My daughter takes photos of EVERYTHING. So she has proof that her chicks was shipped express 1-Day Mail. We have receipts as proof. Photos of her chicks, photos of the box and how they are packed. All of her claims are lies.
A few days later I noticed that this customer was connected to some of the zombie chicken breeders that we had altercations with previously. So not only is this customer bad mouthing us. But she now has competitors joining her.
USPS is a WRECK right now. Since the Atlanta GA distribution center had changed, all of Georgia's Mail is delayed. The Express Mail is stacked to the ceiling in a corner of the warehouse. Mail is processing but nothing is going out. People all over the country right now are experiencing these delays. Chicks are arriving DOA from all the breeders and hatcheries that I know. I know this because I follow the USPS page. And I follow these other farms. EVERYONE is having these issues. This is why we stopped shipping chicks momentarily.
It is not fair that my daughter is getting blamed for USPS delays. It's not fair that my daughter is getting slandered because of something she had no control over. To slander a 15 year old all over Facebook because your shipment was not handled properly by USPS is just wrong. And for so called "Zombie breeders" that dislike my daughter because they are jealous of her breeding program to JUMP IN on this harassment is even more disgusting!
Here's a message for the leghorn breeders that keep harassing this page:
If you breed moonbeams, leghorn crosses, zombies or simply do not like us because we are zombie breeders. Stay off this page. Making mad faces on a 14 year-old girls posts to retaliate against her, simply because you dont like that she breeds zombie chickens is disgusting. I spent all night the other day deleting all of her posts to get rid of the mad faces you left. She was very upset that I had to erase all of her hard work. But that's okay. She is a fighter 💪 ❤️ And I have the magic block button on my side!
These people who caused chaos on this page were never customers. They never ordered from her or our farm. They have never even spoken to us. It was simply retaliation because they disagreed.
My daughter has worked really hard to make this page amazing and fun. And I'm not about to let some bullies ruin it. Atleast have our names right before spreading false information about us.
My daughter is very mature for her age. And will be turning 15 in a few weeks. She uses her farm page/business as part of her home-study as a high school homeschooled student. She does poultry shows, sells eggs to buy things she wants, and has an amazing breeding program. She is as serious about her program as a athlete is to being in the Olympics!
So please be responsible and respectful when coming to this page. If you support her and our familys farm great! 🚜 If you don't, feel free to go bully elsewhere. She will not entertain your drama and neither will I. Period.
YES I am her mother. I do help her manage the legal part of her little business and make sure all orders are correct. I make sure her orders go out correctly. But for the most part, she does everything from advertising, to writting blogs, to helping customers with ordering. I monitor everything she does.
YES our whole family loves & raises chickens. Our farm is called "The Zombie Chicken Farm". The zombie chickens we offer are just one breeding program that we offer. Both of my teenagers have their own program going. Just like i have my own breeding program going. Each member of our family contributes to cleaning coops, feeding chickens, collecting eggs, etc. We each have our own breeds that we work on. It's a family tribute. But ***THIS PAGE HERE**** is run by a very hardworking and motivated 15 year old teenager. Who has spent the last 2 years studying and practicing how to run her own business.
YES she is working on trademarking Zombie Chickens. Yes she is spreading awareness about the differences between "Zombies" and "Moonbeams". And I will 100% support her. It's not your place to attack my child simply because you disagree. The information she is sharing is accurate. And I'm sorry to tell you this, but leghorn crosses are not Zombies. Sorry! 🤷♀️
There is so much misinformation out there about Zombie Chickens. The internet is flooded with people breeding Ayam Cemani x Leghorn Hybrids (AKA Moonbeams) and trying to claim that they are Zombies. There not!
Ayam x Leghorn Hybrids are called "Moonbeams." There are breeders who have been working on Moonbeams since 2019. So your not only discrediting our zombie breeding programs, but your discrediting the Moonbeam breeders that have worked hard on their breeding program too. Zombies are made from pure Ayam Cemani x Putih breedlines with a 3rd fibro breed incorporated. Comb leakage is not accepted in our breed. There are several breeders working on Zombies. And we have already began the process to have Zombies become a recognized breed. This process takes a minimum of 5 years for the APA to approve. So wether you like it or not, this is what we are doing. You either support it. Or don't.
Rant over.
