Since there are four or five favorite hens, they are getting trod to much. The backs of them are featherless. It is cold up here. I read an article on how to make a saddle for them. These are what my first ones look like.

Roosmom, your saddle looks awesome. I need to make a few. My big blue cochin roo is doing a number of my 2 RIR hens. Tomorrow, that'll be tomorrow's project.

Well, it took an extra day, but I made mine today. A few of my girls were started to look awful. Poor babies! It took them a few minutes to get used to them, but so far they're doing fine with them. Grow feathers, grow!!!
