High-Vis Chicken Jacket
Omlets new chicken jackets are great for keeping your chickens warm, dry and clean when out and about on the building site (your garden). Newly rescued battery hens whose feathers are a little sparse or hens who have recently moulted will appreciate the jackets extra warmth and of course it goes some way to protecting a semi naked chicken's modesty.
Its no yolk that chickens who are involved in the hentertainment business are often found crossing the road. Why they do this we don't know - but if they are wearing one of these chicken jackets they will at least be complying with BS-EN471. If you don't know what that means - don't worry - the key thing is that your chickens will be completely safe while changing a wheel on your car if you breakdown on the side of the motorway.

Great Pink Hi Viz Jacket - Sylvia,
Great service from Omlet. Hi Viz chicken coat was great & very useful during the very cold week. My rescue hen who came with no feathers looked very warm & comfortable in the jacket. May need to buy more for the hens next winter.
Such a good idea! - Barbaramoseley, West Sussex,
I had one existing chicken and then rescued two more from the Hen Trust, so bought 3 HV jackets in different colours. They arrived at the just the right time, two coldest nights of the winter, and so for only two days wore them night and day even though this is not advised. Right now and in proper togetherness housing (all get on well) they only go on in daytime when wandering loose in the garden (well dug over!!) but I can recognise each one by their coat colour and see them at dusk to get them back to hot mash and early bed these cold nights.
- Lynn,
One almost featherless little girl is now a very happy hen. So pleased with these jackets and kept her warm and snug during the really cold spell.
Good - Docherty,
1st class product
Nicely made jacket - Dido,
I bought the nicely made dark blue jacket for my black-feathered girl who was moulting and being pecked on her back near her tail. Unfortunately because of her size, the jacket was not sufficiently long enough to cover her bare patch and it could have done with being a couple of inches longer. Perhaps Omlet could make these jackets in two sizes to cover larger birds?
