My son gave me salt and pepper chicken shakers and my daughter found some pretty handmade wooden roosters on a stand at a raleigh flea market so those are on my mantle. My family looked for pjs with chickens on them and couldn't find them so they got second best, pink flamingos, lol!!! Very cute!!!

...course I GAVE a couple of chicken gifts too...my daughter and my sons girlfriend got silver charm braclets with charms we bought separately and I silver soldered onto the bracelet...so they were both surpried to find a chicken charm on each bracelet, lol!!!!

I should also mention that I gave BYC t-shirts to my DS and DIL... they raise chooks. And they were so happy with the shirts. They'll wear them proudly as I do.

I got 4 chick figures, 1 Rooster statue (very colorful), and
a pair that you would swear are frizzled cochins without the feathered legs/feet, Even the "feathers" look real.

I got a subscription to Backyard Poultry Magazine. I've already read the first issue cover to cover.

I got a set of chicken salt & pepper shakers, a chicken calendar, and a small feeder on a canning jar that is decorated with rafia (will use for potpouri). My sis-in-law sent egg baskets lined with chicken fabric, and cross-stitched the chickens names around the base of the basket on a small strip of cloth. We also got a bird house shaped like a chicken from another sis-in-law (we'd sent them a Rock City birdhouse, which was a weird coincidence on gifts!).

I gave DH the "Don't let the chickens in" door mat. I gave all the in-laws and my siblings & Mom the blown eggs I decorated (they were very well received). I've been requested to make more of those for Easter!

I had tucked a soft feather into each of the wooden boxes we packed my blown eggs into, just for fun. I knew sis-in-law Pam had lost her mother earlier this year, but didn't know her mom had collected feathers. So I accidently brought Pam to tears, when the feather fell out of the box, but she says it was in a good way. Since this is the same family we traded birdhouses with, I feel we were on a very strange wavelength this year.

My kids made a point of NOT getting me any chicken stuff as gifts. They don't want to feed the addiction!

I got THREE incubators, that has to count LOL!!! Also got rooster plates that hang on the wall and my BFF gave me the most beautiful, intricately carved rooster. I can't remember the guy who makes them, but it is my fave.
