The Bird in the Hat

Backyard Poultry
How Cute Is That?
See how perfectly the bonnet fit on Pepper's head? The back part was a little rectangle, maybe an inch by an inch and a half, held on by two separate tiny fabric ties. Once we fit the bonnet on, we wrapped the ties around and stitched them onto the back of the bonnet. Only thing was the wattles...well, Pepper would just have to get used to that.
No, Really, It Can't Choke You, Pepper!
Well, can't you tell how much Pepper likes this? This is the least violent of the moves this chicken made to try and free itself of the 'horrible' thing! It ended up almost choking itself before we regretfully removed the entire bonnet with scissors. Apparently our plan had failed. Oh well, I guess it's back to the vegetable treats and chicken toys to try to keep those sharp pecker beaks where they belong.
