Woah, didn't realise these were meant to be flags for pride month! (I also forgot it was pride month).

WHOO asexual egg! It's too bad I didn't get it naturally but I'm probably gonna hoard it!

Can we just enjoy the great idea of pride colors and thank what's there instead of doing the "I am feel uncomfortable when we are not about me?" meme? Anyway, I'm really excited for these deer! They have so much potential since they're basically blank slates lol

I have to politely disagree with your comparison there. Although I doubt it was your intention, lesbians have a very long history of being excluded from pride merchandise. It's an ongoing issue even to this day. Target, for example, is currently selling many different pride flags, including a straight ally flag, but not a lesbian flag. So the lack of a lesbian flag here can feel like just another example* of lesbians being forgotten, and it's understandable that people could feel a bit miffed.

*I also want to make it clear I don't begrudge Lacuna on this - she was just working from the color palette available to her, and there wasn't any way to bring in the orange needed for the flag. But it's not as if people desiring a lesbian flag are butting into a conversation that is not about them. If I misunderstood your comment in any way, please correct me...

yeah yeah i agree w brûlée on this one. while id understand the limited color palette, lesbians do have a huge history of being excluded from merchandise and visibility bc theyre often just tacked under the rainbow flag. the issue of lesbians being excluded isnt an "i am feel uncomfortable when we are not about me" situation, its a situation involving the ongoing erasure of an entire community of people

Also gotta mention this beauty! It's my first store pet I've actually bought but now I want to get the other guys but don't have enough C$ :,)

I at first thought it was some sort of Blue Jay maybe until I saw a post in here saying it's a magpie. Still! It's an amazing design and it's a shame I don't have nothing good to dress it up in seeing as most things go with it!

I really love the pride eggs!
I wish they had a trans one though (I don't think they do, but I'm unsure)
Happy pride month, everybody!

Pansexual has yellow in the middle!



I'm pretty sure that one is trans, just probably not quite in order!

lacuna DID say colors were limited. it was probably done in this way bc of the limited color choices. with both bi and poly looking eggs i dont think thered also be a pan one
