THATCHER, Ariz. (KPHO/Gray News) — A 10-year-old girl in Arizona likes to spend her time raising and selling chickens.
After selling enough of the chickens to raise a few thousand dollars, the family of Kinley Maner said the bank was keeping the money.
While living a rural life in Thatcher, which is located about three hours southeast of Phoenix, Kinley began spending her time raising chickens to sell at the county fair.
“I just thought that it would be fun, because when they’re little, they’re so cute,” Kinley said.
J.R. Maner, Kinley’s father, said the experience has been a lot of fun for his daughter and taught her a lot about chickens.
“It really taught her kind of strict obedience of being out there and taking care of an animal,” he said.
Kinley proudly showed her chickens at the Graham County Fair, eventually putting them up for auction.
After all was done, Kinley’s six chickens sold for a whopping $2,100.
The treasurer of the Small Stock Association wrote Kinley a check, which was electronically deposited at Chase Bank in the bank account of her mother, Kalli Maner.
“So we cashed it,” her father said. “Didn’t think it would be a big deal. And the next day, Chase closed Kalli’s bank account.”
And Kinley’s check was also frozen, meaning she didn’t get that $2,100.
