Featherless Chicken Wears a Sweater to Keep Warm

Posted by Alex in Animal, Fashion on September 23, 2008 at 3:54 pm


When Buffy the chicken lost all of her feathers, staff at the animal rescue center knitted her a sweater to keep warm!

Deputy manager Emma Phillips has become Buffy’s "foster mum" and keeps the hen in a luxury nestbox at the centre’s chicken shed.

She said: "Sadly, we occasionally find hens in this state when we rescue them and when Buffy arrived she looked like she was oven-ready

"But now she’s bold enough to peck and scratch about and tries to join the other chickens sunbathing in the sunshine wearing her little jumper.
