I didn’t know this but people make SWEATERS for their CHICKENS! From what I understand, chickens lose feathers during molting and can get cold (from, you know, FOWL weather). So, their human friends have started making sweaters so they stay warm.<\/strong><\/p>\n

This little number is made for little chickens (petite or bantam) by Shar Bunde of\u00a0ChickenSnackShop<\/a>. She says it’s for the “sophisticated chicken” who “likes fashion and enjoys going to town looking fashionable and chic.” <\/strong><\/p>\n

In other words, ALL CHICKENS.<\/strong><\/p>\n\"ChickenSnackShack-chicken-sweater\"<\/a>\n

This one, made by Erin Langston of Whimsyof Willows<\/a>, is for a hen and it’s more of a jumper than a full sweater. Besides keeping hens warmer, she\u00a0says it also protects hens from “unruly roosters.”<\/strong><\/p>\n\"Chicken-Sweater-WhimsyofWillows\"<\/a>\n

It’s got real wood buttons and is available for $17<\/a>.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n
