The maturation process invariably changes a cute little chick into an old cockerel. It’s the same way everywhere in the animal kingdom where a kitten matures into a mangy old cat and a pup grows up into a slobbering dog who chases its own tail and howls at the moon. Every living thing has to grow up one of these days.

Perhaps it’s a curse that they can’t stay forever young but there is a way… plush toys. Japanese manufacturer Eikoh buys a license for the Piyo Chan chick character and crafts it into plush that’ll stay young into perpetuity. Three styles are on offer - a 5.5cm chick, a 4.0cm chick, and a 4.0cm female chick that wears a pink bow.
