Did you know that real chickens are used as emotional support animals to reduce anxiety and reduce isolation?
My friend Terry and I saw The Needles at the Ready podcast episode 102 where hosts Kevin and Ray told about the emotional support chickens they had knit. I was in Croatia when I watched this podcast so got yarn in the city center of Zagreb at Vuna Kavana.
There were Emotional Support Chicken kits with fun names (ie. Betty Egg-White, Dolly PartHen)you could order a kit from the The Knitting Tree L.A. “LIFE IS HARD. WE ALL NEED A CHICKEN TO HELP MAKE IT BETTER.” Was the tagline.

My friend Alicia texted “Make sure you put a little heart in em when you stuff ❤️”
She sent this quote to me “🥹The Wizard says to the Tin Man: “And remember, my sentimental friend, that a heart is not judged by how much you love, but by how much you are loved by others.”
Awww what a great idea, Alicia. Thank you for the idea. I knit a tiny heart and stuffed it
