sweaters for chickens :)

No insult, but if the chickens don't have their feathers, wouldn't that make the whole plucking job a little easier?

not from that charity, they're not sold to be eaten (and I believe they do check)


my 3 chickens are exbats, they've been here for a year. They were supposed to be past their best, yet they've kept laying all through winter, never had a day with no eggs and most days we get 3.

Plucking may be easier if you think they'd be worth eating but I think it's awful that they're allowed to get into that state in the first place. Fortunately Korma and Masala have grown all their feathers back now and Balti just has a very short tail (but that might just be a her thing not a plucked thing!)
 
one of ours had a fleece vest to keep her warm but she quickly got too big for it when she was settled and her feathers grew back

think our knitting needles are different sizes to yours in america though)
