I bought saddles from hensaver.com. (Nice folks, too.) I got the ones for active hens with the neck loop as well as the wing straps. Problem- when our rooster does trampoline step aerobics on the hen the saddle ends up hanging off of her side. My normally tame hens now run from me because I'm always chasing them to fix the saddle. Any suggestion? I lost a hen already this winter because of her back wounds so I don't want to remove the saddles.
I did have more roos in the beginning but rehomed them so I have 1 rooster on 9 hens. He also seems to have favorites. Some of the girls are untouched but a couple are featherless.
