Can we see a picture of her wearing it? I bet you will be swamped with requests for the pattern! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laura & CTB Posted October 29, 2007 Author Share Posted October 29, 2007 Can we see a picture of her wearing it? Here she is - wings not yet positioned but she seemed to like it anyway and it didnt stop her flying about the place think she was just glad of something to hide her (very) bald neck and chest !

Guest Posted October 29, 2007 Share Posted October 29, 2007 thanks guys, she is so sweet too- at first she was the most nervous because the other girls picked on her a bit but we sorted that out with the addition of extra feed stations and a bit of re-organising the run and now she's the boldest. She is the first out in the morning and last in at night, legs it round at top speed, nearly knocks me over for treats and is just the pluckiest, cheekiest, most adorable little girl in the world! She had a dust bath yesterday for the first time and was covered head to toe in mud, hilarious She's still pretty featherless but I can tell they're starting to grow back, will take a while though. I do worry about her feeling cold but it doesn't seem to worry her in general, I just hope her feathers grow back before it starts to get really cold.

Guest Posted October 29, 2007 Share Posted October 29, 2007 Here she is - wings not yet positioned are her wings meant to go over the top? p.s I'd really appreciate the pattern Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laura & CTB Posted October 30, 2007 Author Share Posted October 30, 2007 That was the plan but she wandered off quite happy Dont think there was a pattern as such - my Mum made it up as she went along but I'll see what I can do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted October 30, 2007 Share Posted October 30, 2007 Shalott wants me to ask you..."may I please have one?" What a heart wrenching photo . I can see why taking ex batts is so popular - you would just want to cuddle them all and keep them warm! My girls don't know how lucky (and feathery) they are .

craftyhunnypie Posted October 30, 2007 Share Posted October 30, 2007 Oooooo shallot needs a mini leg warmer tube thing for her little neckie, bless her! I can knit one, but I'd need to know roughly the circumference of her neck - we wouldn't want it flopping about now would we? Perhaps there is a business oportunity to be had here......Chookie Fashions International!!!! Aww bless her. I really can knit her one if you like!
