Terra, let me know if I can do anything.

Maybe you could give me a call tomorrow, or when you have a few minutes? I think we might have something in common... not sure yet, but I guess we'll see what the tests say. Just curious how you deal with the pain.

Known as amigurini, they are simply decorative, although I have made them open at the bottom without stuffing to be used as egg cozies for soft boiled eggs.

Obviously they are sort of whimsical interpretations of chicken breeds. Most chicks look so similar as babies, I thought it would be more fun to have a chick version of the color of the grownups. I got a great mustardy yellow for the Buff Orpingtons.

After the show, I want to do some food projects. I have a book called "Tasty Crochet" that has patterns for all sorts of food items like asparagus and pumpkin pie. Even a bagel with a schmear!

Ok; I hunted all over Etsy and couldn't find your amigurumi chicks, so I'm guessing you have them available for purchase at some other site. Etsy has lots of them made by other people, so that might be a good place for you to explore and see what others are charging for their work. Let me know the link to where you have yours for sale, so I can buy some. By the way, I was curious about the origin of this new intriguing word and looked it up. Was interesting to find that it's Japanese in origin and is a blending of the Japanese words for crocheted/knitted and stuffed toy figure.

Today, Erica and her cute daughter brought the Serama chick over to our house in hopes that our broody Wyandotte hen would adopt the baby. Instead, our blind silkie hen has taken the chick under her wing. They have been in a box next to me in the living room for a few hours and all seems to be well. Here are a sequence of pics where the baby is checking out her new mama and finally disappears under the fluff. Could you all please cross your fingers and toes that this works out? I would appreciate it very much.

Tina, my fingers are so crossed they are hurtin! ....what a very wonderful thing you could offer to help .......and that

it's looking good.

Just be careful. Tiny chicks can get tangled up in the belly fluff of the Silkies.
They can choke, or get trampled in all that mess under there.
But I'm confident a blind mama will have better instinct.
