I’ve only been aware of the Sion Chickens for a few short weeks. But in that time, the popularity of these chickens has taken off at an incredible rate. The blogosphere is saturated with people posting about their chickens, Twitter and Plurk are buzzing with people asking questions about the care and raising of their chickens. I’ve seen in world chicken groups, flickr groups, and entire farm-themed sims dedicated to these chickens. Since I love blogging and taking photos, I figured- why not start a blog where we can compile all the Sion Chicken related information in one place. I’ve spent the last couple of weeks looking around at some of the chicken farms, and seeing a lot of really great builds and clever products like pens, coops, chicken toys, etc. I want to start reviewing some of these farms and blogging about this whole chicken phenomena. But as most of you probably know- either you love the chickens, or you hate them. So rather than putting this information on my personal blog or even my Home and Garden related blog, I thought it would be best to create a separate blog just for those that are interested.
So here we go! I look forward to visiting many of the farms and chicken ranches that I’ve seen on the grid, and blogging about them. But I thought it would only be fitting to start off with the very first place I became aware of, Lavish Chicken Shop. Now, I’ve already blogged this place several times on my personal blog and I do want to start blogging some places I have not mentioned yet, so I’ll keep this one brief.
I find Lavish Chicken Shop incredibly cute, and I love coming back here whenever I need to pick up new food or other supplies. I first found out about this from another blogger friend of mine, Alicia Chenaux. She had posted about a Midnight Mania board where you could win some baby chickens. I had not heard of this before, but I was curious so I signed up. When I got my eggs the next day, I had a little bit of trouble and a lot of questions relating to their hatching. Alora was wonderful, and was more than happy to answer all of my questions. She even sent me a replacement set of eggs when it appeared that there might have been a problem with mine. I appreciated how helpful and friendly she was, which is why I come back to Lavish often when I need chicken supplies.

Lavish Chicken Cottage
In addition to a massive assortment of v10 and v11 Scion eggs, Alora also has designed a lot of cute items of her own, available for purchase. The Lavish Chicken Cottage is a small prefab built to be a safe shelter for your chickens. The cottage is surrounded by a wooden picket fence with flowers, and includes some eggs.

7 Spring Colored Eggs
As I mentioned before, Alora sells a large selection of individual eggs. But she also put together some beautiful egg baskets. These baskets contain 7 colorful eggs. You can also keep the container as decoration, the particle butterflies are so pretty!

Midnight Mania and Supplies
Her midnight mania board is still available, and it seems like she changes the color of eggs now and then. When I came here the first time, she had a red and blue egg set available. Now she has green and brown eggs up on the board, so you can mix and match your chickens to get more pretty colors.
She also sells other items like chicken toys, pens and even some nice blankets that your chickens will be drawn to sleep on- and it includes some poses so you can lay down with your chickens! Very cute!
