This time round, instead of bunny, I am making Easter Chicken. The big easter egg is in the earlier post. The assembling of the hair, beak, eyes and all, I did before I add stuffing in the head. Please refer to the tutorial video for guidance.
The tutorial video :
Chicken Head (I sew the hair, beak and add eyes when I am at row 20, before I add stuffing)
1) Start with a magic circle / ring. Do 6 single crochet (sc) into the ring [total 6]
2) Do 2 sc into each stitch (inc) [total 12]
3) (Sc, inc) - 6X [total 18]
4) (Sc, inc, sc) - 6X [total 24]
5) (Sc next 3, inc) - 6X [total 30]
6) Sc all around [total 30]
7) Sc next 2, inc (sc next 4, inc) - 5X, sc next 2 [total 36]
8) (Sc next 5, inc) - 6X [total 42]
9) - 12) Sc all around [total 42]
13) Sc next 10, inc next 2, sc next 19, inc next 2, sc next 9 [total 46]
14) - 16) Sc all around [total 46]
17) Sc next 11, do 2together (dec) next 2, sc next 19, dec next 2, sc next 8 [total 42]
18) (Sc next 5, dec) - 6X [total 36]
19) Sc next 2, dec (sc next 4, dec) - 5X, sc next 2 [total 30]

21) Sc, dec, (sc next 2, dec) - 5X, sc [total 18]
22) Dec all around [total 9]
Leave a bit of a tail, sew on all the front loop and pull to seal the hole. When assembling the eye, I made a stitch on the 2 eyes, pull, to make the 2 eyes sunk in. (Refer to the tutorial video)
