Pin Reveal: Trans, Genderfluid, & Rainbow “Sheep of the family”
🕑 Added 2022-11-14 21:18:10 +0000 UTCThank you all so much for voting on our eyes poll. It is basically a tie, trading back and forth by a point or two. We ended up going with eyes closed because it was slightly easier to parse when a gold metal effect was applied.
Our December Pins are the Pride Sheep! Any family with Pride Sheep in their flock is lucky to have them!
Recently we unlocked 3 flags per month for hitting 300+ members! Learn more about new tiers and legacy tiers in our Tier Changes Post.
The Three Sheep for this month:
- The Gay Breakfast is LGBTQ Sheep.
- The Special is Trans Sheep.
- The *new* Seasonal is Genderfluid Sheep.
To get multiple pins:
- The *new* Combos get you 2 pins (Details in our Tier Changes Post)
- The *new* Prix Fixe gets you all 3 pins, and
- The *new* worldwide Buffet comes with all three plus a mystery pin— 4 pins total!
The Coupon Club is a great way to take a break and still access 20% off our store, plus our upcoming design polls. It also helps to keep us at a membership level where we can continue to offer 3 flags a month.
Old retired tiers will get the same combination of pins they always have. But if you change tiers, you cannot return to old retired tiers later.
All pledge changes made before Nov 30th at 11:59PM Pacific will apply to these pins, and will not be charged until December 1st!
Please help us spread the word on Twitter
Mailing Schedule:
We also want to remind you that we mail quarterly now. This means 3 months of pins will be mailed simultaneously in January. Here is the reasoning:
- Pin Production times are trending longer. We used to be able to get pins in 4 weeks and it is taking 6-8 weeks, even without factory closures.
- Inflation is hitting everybody, including us. Rather than raise prices to match inflation, we can keep prices lower if we mail 2-3 months at once.
Current Mailing Status:
- We are almost done mailing August-October (Thylacine, Opossum, and Bat) pins. If your tracking info looks weird, please remember that USPS recycles old tracking numbers, and if you check back in a couple days it will probably look better.
- Store preorders from last season will be going out very soon! We are still reorganizing our pin storage after our big move, but we've made progress.
All that said, when we manually merge spreadsheets for 2-3 different months, we can occasionally make errors. It is extremely work-intensive, but we want to do this rather than raise pledge prices more. If we make any errors on your order, please message us here and at support@GayBreakfast.GAY—and we will work to resolve any fulfillment errors on our part during our next mailing.
Thank you so much for your support and patience as we adapt to changes in membership and the economy!

Any changes, downgrades to $3 support/voting/coupon club, or full cancellations in response to the Sheep pins will need to be completed by Nov 30 because Patreon starts charging on Dec 1. Thank you!

Just so that I totally understand how this works: this is the pin that Patrons will get for paying at the end of November, so anyone who doesn't want this should unsubscribe now?

So I was right to jump on that subscription. Thank you for all of your answers and for designing such a cute pin!

Eventually, 6-12 months later, leftovers will appear in the back of our shop, only announced to Patrons initially so that patrons get first dibs. Anything left after that will then finally be available for general sale. Thank you!

While I have your attention, I'm curious: will the monthly pins eventually be in the shop?
SpicedPie
Ahhh that is so sweet! I hope she loves it~
SpicedPie
Yes, Combo A gets the trans pin and the rainbow pin, together. Thank you!
Fiskie Rexie
I just subscribed to Gay Breakfast Combo A —US Only, is that correct to get the Trans Sheep pin?
