For the past two years,

For the past two years, dressing up horse manure has been both a hobby and a business for the this woman. She has sold almost 200 so far and people have been paying $20 a pop.

Engelmann made her first manure masterpiece about 10 years ago at Christmas time. She was stuck for a Christmas present and was part of a gift-giving circle where she needed to make the gift herself.

What could she do? She turned to poop and decided to make turd birds.

Each Turd Bird is handcrafted by Engelmann, made from horse manure from a Lockeford field. She typically goes out early in the morning, equipped with some thick, yellow dishwashing gloves, fireplace tongs, some worn out tennis shoes and an old tote bag, in search of the driest specimens.
