Hey all.  If you haven't checked out the shop at home specials this week,
Check out the Duplo farm Animals.  For only eight bucks you can get a bunch
of fencing (always needed when building a wild west town) and some cattle
and pigs.  The Baby Animals work well with mini fig scale (I use the duplo
Giraffes, hippos, and cheetahs in my adventurers / islander themes)  You
also get some feed troughs, and the corn block makes a good sign addition
for the general store.  I always check duplo and belville sets out to see
what items work in other themes, and for 8 bucks this one is a good buy.

Thanks for this tip Jon.  I never bother to check out the Duplo listings but
having looked at this one I definitely think that having some of those
fences would be great.  The only similar ones I've found are in the huge
5988 Adventurers set and no one seems to have those brown board fences for
sale on brickbay.

Looking at the set it also occurs to me that the chicken would be great for
building a mini-fig scale fried chicken restaurant.  In fact, right across
the street could be the bbq joint with the huge revolving pig statue on top.

Oh yeah! I'm going to go order a couple of these right now.
