That's adorable. An old friends mother used to use her husband's old underwear for her "threadbare" chickens.... Not sure how she did it thoughLadyCluck I was thinking that I did have a couple hens that finished growing back in feathers on their backs a little bit late...and there were some nights that the temps dipped to the teens or so and I did put their little felted wool saddles I cut out of old sweaters that I washed down. I knew they were pretty exposed and the temps were hitting those lows...and I did this pampering thing for those "threadbare" hens. LOL. Never thought I do that for them...but I envisioned myself out in the cold without a stitch of covering on my back and didn't like the idea too much.
