Hen Couture Denim Hen Jacket Saddle Designed by My Favorite Chicken, these beautiful hen jackets are sure to make your hens impress while walking on the run-way. More practically speaking, a hen saddle or apron is a piece of chicken apparel, worn for a temporary period of time, and can be used for multiple purposes: Provides relief and protection of the back from pecking hens and during molting season. Provides protection from a rooster's spurs during breeding. Attractive to look at and just plain fun to dress up your chickens! Elastic band on each side to slip behind each wing to safely secure the jacket without harming the chicken. The pecking order can be unforgiving at times The pecking order can be a little fierce at times, and there is always that one poor, innocent hen at the bottom of the pecking order that suffers. First goes the feathers, then possibly drawing of first blood. If you don't act fast in protecting the hen, more serious health problems can occur. Sometimes a roo picks a very special lady and can wreck havoc on her back with his beak and spurs by over-breeding. This can be unhealthy for the hen and she can sustain feather loss and damage. Potentially deters aerial predators Hawks, eagles, and other aerial predators are one of those dangers that flock owners face everyday, especially if you free-range your chickens. Being natural hunters, they can spot their prey from hundreds of feet away. The bright colorful designs of the hen saddles can actually deter them from choosing your hen for lunch. Being unnatural in color and shape, the hen apron confuses the predator and is like a costume for your hen. And if they do decide to attack, the hen saddle inhibits their ability to grasp your chickens.
