Standard Size 'Pink Daisy' Hen / Chicken Saddle
Chicken saddles are made to protect your hen's back from a roosters nails and spurs. When a rooster overmates a hen this can lead to serious and sometimes life threatening damage. Backs can become bare in what seems like overnight. Often people think they need to trim the spurs or remove them entirely but that is not necessary with a chicken saddle. Why take away your rooster's best defense in protecting his flock when you can get a chicken saddle?We make these saddles to allow feather growth without having to separate your hen from the flock or having to remove or trim anything on your rooster. These can also be used during a molt in case there is excessive pecking. Our design covers more for better protection. They are now longer and wider with the bottom to curve around the tail and protect even more! We use high quality materials - the patterned cotton or flannel front and a tough duck cloth underneath. The duck cloth has a brushed, softer side to rest against the  bare skin of your hen's back and is tough without being thick and heavy so these will still work great in warm weather.  The elastic that runs along the top of the saddle slips over the wing of your bird to hold the saddle on. We've made this easy for you by allowing the elastic to be pulled completely to one side to have more than enough room to put a wing through without hurting your chicken and then pulled through to the other side to put the other wing in.These are the perfect addition to any emergency kit.
