Wow, that's such a fascinating concept. It really makes you think of how this idea can apply to other things. Thinking out loud, one secret, it seems, is filling a niche that's ignored by the Wal-Marts of this world. You can buy a lot of things there, but no chickens. Well, at least not breathing ones. Hmmm...what else is being ignored by the traditional marketplace? Yeah, I'll be thinking about this one.

Great marketing! I wonder how much of their revenue comes from all the accessories.
