FolkmanisPuppet Hen Hand Puppet Brown 3094

I like the quality of this make have bought them before

I recently purchased this puppet, it being my first Folkmanis puppet. Overall, I have been very happy with the hen. The material she is made of is very soft and realistic looking, much like in the pictures. Since her wings as well as her neck and beak can move, there is a lot of play value with this puppet, more than a lot of other animal puppets. I have had a lot of fun entertaining people with her antics. A great product for children as well of adults. While the price may seem a bit high (note this puppet is a bit higher than many other Folkmanis animal puppets), this puppet is definitely worth it. the quality of the materials and the extra complexity of this design (such as having wings that can be moved) account for that. If this puppet appeals to you, I highly recommend purchasing it. It has impressed me so much that I will be buying more Folkmanis puppets in the future.The only negative comment I have is she hasn't laid any eggs yet. I was hoping that she would provide a sufficient number of eggs so I would no longer have to buy them at the grocery store. So far this has not happened. I will update this review if or when she starts laying.

Very easy to maneuver on stage in our Pantomime

This is one of the best puppets I've ever had, and I've had a lot. You can make the neck and mouth move or the wings (I think that with practice you could do both at the same time). The neck motion is especially nice for a realistic bird look. The plush material looks amazingly like feathers. And the material on the feet has a texture that really looks like the skin on chicken feet. I think this is going to end up my favorite puppet. You can't go wrong with Folkmanis puppets.

Best chicken I ever saw, every detail is perfect & that face makes me smile every time I look at it, Folkmanis always does a wonderful job & each animal is filled with character plus! Came is good time too, made my Christmas! Sara
