The Dinosaur Hat is what a Dinosaur Egg becomes if it never reaches the incubator. Dropping the egg and a piece of Cloth into a Sewing Machine turns one of the game's rarest finds into a small green dinosaur that rides on the farmer's head. That choice is the interesting part: the same egg can hatch a dinosaur that lays eggs every week, or it can be sewn into a hat that lays nothing at all. Most farms keep the first egg for the coop and spend a later one on the hat. Emily's booth at the Desert Festival hands out the same hat at random, which saves an egg for anyone lucky at the changing box.
Location
Dinosaur Eggs come from several places, and none of them is reliable. Killing a Pepper Rex on the prehistoric floors of the Skull Cavern gives much the best chance, and those floors can also be foraged for an egg left lying about. Artifact spots dug in the mountains and the quarry turn one up now and then, treasure chests reeled in while fishing hold one occasionally, and the crane game in the cinema has been known to drop one as a hidden prize.
The Sewing Machine stands in the front room of Emily and Haley's house, free to use through the day. Cloth goes in the left slot and the egg in the spool slot, and one press of the button makes the hat. Cloth itself comes from wool in a loom, from recycling a Soggy Newspaper, or from mummies in the Skull Cavern, which means a cavern trip can supply both halves of the recipe. Finishing Emily's Rock Rejuvenation request brings a Sewing Machine home, so later hats can be made without the walk into town.
Effect
The hat looks like a small dinosaur curled over the hair, with the head facing forward and the tail behind. It is comic rather than smart, and it pairs naturally with the striped shirt and the dinosaur-patterned trousers that come with it in the festival outfit. Set on a pet, it turns a cat into something that blends in with the chickens.
Notes
A dinosaur kept in a Big or Deluxe Coop hatches from the egg in under a fortnight, sooner for a farmer with the Coopmaster profession, and then produces an egg a week. Weighing that income against a hat is the real decision behind this recipe.
Anyone short of eggs can farm Pepper Rex directly: the prehistoric floors appear often enough on long descents that a bombs-and-staircases run usually comes home with at least one.
