@3goodeggs whimsy is a great way to go! Looking forward to seeing what you come up with!

This is kinda like waiting for new Chick pictures!

It's done.
How fun. We had so much fun!

I am so tickled by my gum drop chickens.

I never would have imagined that it would work, but they are really cute.

Now, Here is my question:
Is is going to take me a while to figure out which three pictures to use, But I would like to post my chickens on another thread to give some inspiration to others so they might want to try.
Would that count as one of the three pictures?
It would only be the gum drops.
(Actually I don't want to win anything anyway -so if it disqualifies me that'd be okay... I just have this thing about following the rules.)

Nope the entry need to have 3 pictures but someone else posted after the entry as not part of the entry. all is fair on other threads! I think everyone posted on the baking thread.

The box the graham crackers are iced to is cardboard and inedible, and the tooth pick piece that holds the chicken's heads to their bodies in inedible, otherwise it is all a go.
I had too much trouble with the netting so I made them all free range hens.

(My husband is the only predator they need to worry about anyway.
You'd think a man who won't eat jello would have gum drop issues, but that just isn't the case.)

I had 25 chickens to start my adventure with so we made 25 hens and one rooster, because we did add Reynard later.
This is not my coop it is a whimsy coop.
If we do this again next year, I will try for the hen's real homestead.


Okay... If I can figure this out... and please ignore the background...





Edit to add: The chicken droppings are snowcaps. There was no cross contamination.

I think that was me.....I posted a shot of the coop and the house just to compare the two. I did ask permission first, though, like Eggsie is doing. I can't wait to see that entry!! Why are folks posting over on the baking thread? I mean, I know why - it's a baking thread - but we sure would love to see them entered here as well.

We cross posted, Eggsie! Oh my gosh that is so doggone adorable I don't even know where to start! I adore the rooster on top of the coop, and those gumdrop chickens are fantastic! You did it!!

It was so worth waiting for! Love it love it love it!!

 

[3goodeggs]

Because we post everything everywhere all the time, Blooie. I'd have thought you would have figured that out by now.

I think all entries are here, but for people who have not found out about this contest we are spreading it around.
Like a good chicken farmer should...
