This is the one I made She wanted it supper puffy and warm so I used a high loft batting heavy fleece back and we tied it. . What can I say she loves it. And it has held up well being washed.

Living on the west coast and being literally the last stop on the postal rt I won't be seeing my package for several hours yet.

I'm was so happy when I went out to my mailbox & there was my squishie. Excited to start sewing & coming up with different idea's!

Kassaundra that really is a different looking chicken. YOu'll have to post a picture of it after it's grown a bit for the before & after shots. What kind of chicken is it?

Kassaundra

Genetically it is a Naked neck, sometimes called turken. However it carries a double hit of a rare genetic mutation (that exists in my flock) causing it to not have scales or feather follicles. This mutation isn't from being naked necked any breed of chicken can carry it and if one gets a double recessive hit then they can't grow feathers. This one has more tufts then any I have hatched, no matter how old it gets they will always be fluff, no actual feathers.

The usps lied to me today, I called to see if the mail person had the squishie, she assured me he did, but he didn't leave it. They said I could pick it up at the po if the mail carrier didn't deliver, so Gary had to go to town anyway for his niece he is going to try and pick it up for me.

THAT doesn't even look like a chicken!! LOL

Billie I didn't go back a page and see your previous quote about the t shirt quilt. Thank you for the information!! Ive watched tutorials about it but not sure it ever gave the kind of stabilizer to use. I can always ask the "experts" at Joanns I guess! Thanks again...your quilt is beautiful!!

terriamn

Wow never seen a chicken like that, will your whole flock look like that?

received my squishie, one is completed and starting on the second one

Kassaundra

I got my squishie!!!! No sadly my flock doesn't, but I did hatch out 3 this time. Most of my flock are carriers though.
