They/Them, 30s, the artist behind Lairbrew. Obsessed with chickens, too many other interests to summarize.

Suits:
October, Cockatrice fursona, 🪡lulu_furs
Egg, Hognose, 🪡CityMutt (shared w/my wife)
Being a vendor at every furry con you attend means you get to suit for like 15 minutes when you should already be going to sleep

Slowly putting together a new enclosure build based on having had house chickens as long as I have. It is at least to the point where these two can be cozy!

Dino Saure and Noodle Caboodle!! BJ is bad company for Nana so she will have a flock her own size now. Dino has his adult voice but Noodle still talks like a baby

Nana Banana got a new peel today

I adopted a retired breeder leachie! She is a calm, sweet individual according to her old keeper, and she hasn't given me anything even close to sass yet. I'm gonna spoil her rotten

Nana's review: "Thought it was cheese, it wasn't. 2 out of 5."

Poor BJ is having one of the worst molts I've ever seen. This is unfortunately common for hens with borked hormones, and since managing her cancer means borking them on purpose, she is currently untouchable. She stands in one spot all day looking absolutely miserable. Can't wait for it to be over.

BJ hates the heat and Nana is super cold intolerant. Nanners roosts against 2 outdoor walls so when it's really cold she gets super chilly, but I can't turn up the heat enough to negate it or it'll roast BJ.

Luckily she's so tiny and sweet I can just set her on the warm bathroom shelf and she stays

Bananners is having a rough molt but she's still much happier with Tito gone. She went from seeing me as a scary food carrying gremlin who would scream bloody murder any time she was touched to wanting to be carried around, smooshed and snuggled 24/7 pretty much overnight.

I asked my wife to maybe take some pictures while we were at the fursuit playground at Aquatifur '24 and there is a hilarious but concerning number of me falling or being a pile on the floor

GUESS WHAT ARRIVED!!!! I finally got to try my fursuit on tonight even though it arrived on monday. I'm excited to do stuff with it, now I will feel better about doing photoshoots for more wearable goods for the shop

30hr test print of this model before I chop her up and turn her in to 300hr+ print. That's about 58 hours on this project so far and it's just the beginning. Feels good to be working on something big

My maker (lulu_furs on instagram) finished my fursuit head today and sent this photo with a random lil cute worm prop 🥹 I'm so excited to get to wear this!!!

Me: I have to go I hope the next gas station is big enough I don't need to pester staff for a bathroom key

Iowa: wish granted you dumb slut

Big bowl of raw fish and avocado screaming about the backerkit already hitting 6k IT IS A GOOD DAMN DAY

And the first baby to hatch has turned out to be a white and black cockerel! He is extremely confident and easy to handle but he can be a real jerk. Big ego.

Grey baby is a light blue with unknown sex at this time (I always think blues and lavs are cockerels and they're always hens,) and lil black baby is a black cockerel. Blue is the only chick with a name: Crybaby. They cheep at a totally different pitch and cry about EVERYTHING.

Possible keepers: tawny red baby and mottled baby. Mottled baby turned out to be a spunky mottled hen, and tawny baby is a sweet and a little stupid) partridge hen. I love them both.

Long overdue baby update! Let's start with my for sure keepers: eyelash baby and tiny white baby.

Tiny white was touch and go for her first weeks. She is the only white I ever hatched

Eyelash baby has grown in to a tawny grey leakage lad. He loves belly rubs and is one of the kindest roos ever.

trash peddlers on Amazon looking to make 3 wolf moon parodies with AI art out here cookin up fresh body horror nightmares for chicken keepers god damn

Sleepy baby pile
January 30, 2024 at 11:27 PM
It is too soon to know for sure but right now it looks like we have 3 hens, 3 roos, and one that could go either way.

Also tiny white baby is still with us! She is still getting over her RI but is on the mend. She has befriended the bravest and most outgoing boy so we might have our keepers :)

Mottled baby and eyelash baby. Mottled baby is a bit easily startled and just seems kinda confused. Eyelash baby is a quiet, shy little buddy who likes naps. Neither is high strung so treats will easily make them good companions.

That's all of em!

Black baby and tiny problem baby. Black baby is very anxious but likes being cupped. Tiny problem baby (stuck in egg, blood vessel around leg, curled toes, splayed leg, pasty butt, took forever to eat,) is the teensiest, and probably my favorite because they get so excited to see me and be cuddled
