Are you torn about what to gift your chickens for Christmas this year?
Me too. Last year I gave the chickens yummy sourdough bowls filled with corn and mashed potatoes. But this year, I think I want to get them something a little nicer. So if you are having difficulty coming up with a smashing gift this holiday, here are a few of my top picks.
Happy Hen Treats can be found on Amazon.com as well as your local feed store for around $5.99 per bag.
Instead of waking up to frozen water bowls this winter, splurge a little and get your flock a heated pet bowl this Christmas. Heated bet bowls are available for as low $17.97 on Amazon.com.
Save a chicken. Buy the neighbors dog a rubber chicken to play with and he’ll leave your hens alone. There are rubber chickens in all sorts of sizes and costumes on Amazon.com.
Every chicken needs a “little black dress” for parties and other social gatherings, get yours from ChickenSuits.com.
Chicken Diapers are all the rage this year. And with so many styles to choose from, you won’t have to worry about the hen in the next nesting box over will be wearing the same pattern. These outrageously awesome chicken diapers can be found at backyardchickens.com.

Too funny! I have a little frizzle and we were just joking about bringing her in …

I love my chickens but I draw the line at chicken suits and chicken diapers! Maybe I’ll give them a watermelon. It’s their favorite.

Okay, while this IS entertaining, do people not know there are children starving in this world? Oh, how we forget when we don’t see it before our eyes!
Sorry, I just had to say it:-).

I know. How ridiculous, the chicken costumes were meant to be cheeky. I love you Jane.
You Can Call Me Jane says

Mavis,
Ive been a reader for quite awhile now and just love your nutty personality and everything that you do. but please, please tell me your not going to dress up your chickens. animals have fur and feathers for a reason. unless for some reason one of your chickens get plucked by the local bandit plucker. hehehe.
keep up the good work and inspiration!!
