Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking. Carefully break 12 pretzel rods in half.
Add 10 ounces Reeces peanut butter chips to a cup and microwave on 50% power for one minute. Stir, and continue to heat in 30 second increments until its melted. For best results, you want the peanut butter chips to easily spread, but not so hot that it doesn't set rather quickly.
One at a time, dip one side of each of the 24 Oreo cookies in the melted peanut butter chips and lay them on parchment paper with the peanut butter side up. While the peanut butter is still wet, arrange some of the1/2 cup candy corns around the outside to look like tail feathers.
Dip one end of the pretzel rod in the melted peanut butter chips and set on top of the decorated Oreo. Support the base of pretzel rod with a candy corn, if needed, to allow it to dry properly.
While the peanut butter is still warm, press two of the 48 candy eyes and two of the 2 tablespoons candy covered sunflower seeds into peanut butter to resemble eyes, beak, and waddle.
Allow to fully set, then enjoy!
