A Satisfied Customer

At the farm, in the spring, when purchases far exceed sales in monetary value, we're offering a few extra things for sale:
pullets, adult guinea fowl, bags of rabbit manure, and, of course, the best fresh eggs for eating, and some fertile eggs for hatching. This is a time when we can connect with other farmers, gardeners, hobbyists and talk about our favorite growing things.
This morning a man visited us to buy the one guinea hen we have left. We have lots more males, but only one hen.
Sometimes the guinea fowl are hard for us to tell apart, male from female. We were sure this one was a hen and maybe, just maybe, there's another...
I received this Email this afternoon:
"good afternoon steve,
i wanted to thankyou for allowing me to come out today, 4 of my guinea cocks are very happy, they have taken to the hen already.
again, if and when you identify some more hens i would be happy to purchase 3-4 more. as well if you do get some turkey eggs ( fertile of course) i would
be more than happy to purchase 6 from you.
pls thank your daughters for me they were very kind. i look forward to hearing from you sometime in the future.
enjoy the beautiful day and wknd
wayne"
Thanks Wayne, we enjoyed meeting you too!
