I am walking Penny( Buff Orp) w a chicken saddle on her back. lol..she is very relaxed and not fighting me with it..I had to make few saddles for a lady who shows her chickens and wanted to excerise them without having them running or flying away..
Penny w leash
Buffy looking at the saddle while Penny was busy preening her feathers..
How ADORABLE! You do know... that you need to get a leash with chicken prints on it, rather than dog prints, right.... ;-)
havent found any w chicken prints down here where I am at...:(..cuz I got the clasp part ready..
Send them hear...I will embroider chicken foot prints for you! It would be so cute!
I love the saddle! I think the other one was just jealous and planning his move to steal it from her!
Hahahah..she must be..really ya can do that?? I dont embroi nothing...
I would love to have something like that done..How much? or can we barter..or what! i dont know anyone w embroi machine....
Look at my fashionable chicken saddles I been making....in next few posts..Had a lady buy a bunch of them w D rings cuz she shows her birds..she want to be able to walk them for excerise..and not fly or run away...lol.
more saddles
more..lol
more........
saddles...lol
You do have chicken ones!!! They are cute.
I do all embroidering by hand! I wouldnt mind the barter system! hehehe
I like to make them look like a chicken walked across the material with muddy feet.
I use to do it with ferret feet on their little blankets. They are so cute.
SOOOO CUTE!
Oh, Good Lord.
Moodene those chicken saddles are wonderful!
They could also be a great defence for urban chickens in a municipalities that don't allow "farm animals". If a family walks their chickens on a leash like they walk the dog, cat or goat, then there would be a stronger defense for the "chicken as family pet" concept.
I smell loophole! ahhhh yes.
Definite loophole!! Saddle, leash, pooper-scooper, baggie.
Ya'll are cahoots in my book..!! I do sell them to others but in private..lol..and on another chicken forum...Yep, I do have chicken ones and got few more for spring line...lol...Dmail me..if ya want more information..
That picture made me laugh so loud.. I absolutely love it when a chicken sees something new.. that look is absolutely priceless!
I love it!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you so much!
This seems like the perfect solution for keeping apartment/ hi-rise chickens.
"Honey, I need to walk the hens."
Do roos crow indoors? (I've only ever had them outdoors w/ coop) If they are willing to wait until their morning walks to do the crowing, then they could let loose during "business hours" and potentially not be a problem in residential neighborhoods. Could open up new housing options for them.....not to mention the dating potential.
LOL...
They're surely better than a lot of high-rise doggies...
We have neighbor who takes her Macaw out to sing and squawk in the afternoon. At full volume, that parrot is a lot louder than a rooster.
Anyone here ever kept a rooster in the house long enough to know if he'll crow inside? How close are we to a "chicken in every home"?
Well ours come up to our bedroom windows on balmy mornings and crow to wake us up -they're plenty loud...
Ever been near a large parrot at full volume? Is a rooster louder?
Ever kept your rooster in the house for a day or two?
No. They just try to come in. Seems to be a territorial thing. If they feel the need to claim it...
My best guess here is that IF he felt a need to 1) dominate any male 2) impress any female or 3) keep himself company...then he would crow as required...
I had a hand raised batch who ended up in the house longer than I wanted. (Until the coop was done) And yes, they crow inside. They do it to communicate with their girls and communicate they did. hehehe
A chicken in every home! funny!!!
Yes, they do crow indoors. I don't know if any of you remember my fiasco with the gnats earlier this last year, but I had to bring my chickens inside for several days. OMG! My roos crowed every morning at 5:00am sharp or something close to that. Also, I loooove your ladybug saddle! Very cute.
moodene i love your chicken saddles and your Buffy does look jealous of Penny. ha ha ha
