Chickens Gone Nuts in Chicken Aprons!

Uhhh... Maybe it's the predator prints?

I would love to know how also. My hens could use one. The roosters are just adimant about going for a ride. lol

yes my chickens went nuts too, when I put the aprons on. Only a couple of chickens needed them and the others attacked the ones with aprons...My aprons were a little too big and they got them off in a couple of days. The good news is that their feathers are starting to grow in. I think (pretty sure) my pullets were going through a moult when their backs got bare.

Cute aprons!

Hmm..My chickens never went nuts. But, I put them on them after they had gone to bed for the night and this worked out very well. They just went right back to bed. The other chickens never picked on them or messed with them at all. Maybe it was the camo print fleece.

I would really love to know how to make one of these or to have a look at some good pictures so I could figure it out. I have a few hens that need to have their feathers grow back. My Rooster loves to go piggy back riding. Wears out the feathers there. lol

Thank you so much. I can work with this. I just needed something to go by. My hens will thank you too. (i think) lol

LOL!

I wonder if a more nuetral color (maybe something that blends in to them) would help.

I have 1 buff and 2 reds that need one of these. I'm going to try to match up their color as close as I can at least.
