I'm thinking maybe you could just make a Zon one and a Quaker one and I can just come pick them up when I pick up the fruit? LOL :eek::D

I immediately got dressed to go to the store and pick up balloons!! Haha this is so much fun to make and I bet Pumpkin will go nuts when it's done. I will post pics of the final result. Thank you thank you for taking the time to make the tutorial. Lol I'm such a kid I'm having too much fun!

Nope, there's two huts in their cage and she's STILL not sharing LOL

LOL! Quigley is funny. She has to keep one eye on the one she's working on, and the other eye on the other hut because they're both hers!

Shirre, I can't wait to see your safe piñata huts, quakers would be perfect candidates, they love happy huts but most quakers shouldn't be trusted with them.

I can't open the link. Please post pics of your finished project.

Oh so now you have a new addition??? Lol but yeah, I can do that! Lol

Yes I have a new addition, there is another thread titled "I guess Zilla and I have a new addition to our flock" or something like that.

And I know Zilla won't use one, but maybe the Quaker would, so maybe one for him?
