That ended with her response of "We don't sell chicks as food for other animals, please try somewhere else." in a very stern and angered tone.
I had the same issue with petsmart and mice. I was kind of pissed. I called the manager and told them that I could use the mouse I bought for whatever (the hell) I wanted, and it was none of their (damn) business. He felt bad that I was treated so rudely and gave me three for free.
