Is it possible to buy or make my own Uncle Sam hat?

Unfortunately, we currently do not sell Uncle Sam hats. However, we have had some very creative customers make fantastic hats of their own. To try for yourself, follow these simple steps: * First, using a cardboard box, cut out a donut shape. This will be the rim of the hat. For added effect, try coloring with stripes or stars. * Next, take a small dixie cup and cut off about 1/2 - 1 inch of the bottom of the cup. This bottom will be the top portion of the hat. Feel free to color this with red, white, & blue stripes and/or stars to match or coordinate with the rim. * Finally, simply glue the top of the hat onto the rim of the hat. * Additionally, you may want to glue a thin strip of fabric or elastic to the bottom of the hat rim to secure the hat on your bird. When doing this, take special care not to make it too tight, so that your bird does not choke. When all is said and done, your hat could look something like these:
