Ever wondered why your chicken’s fertility drops off after a while? Particularly with larger breeds and rough roosters? So often, it is because the back and sides of the hens have been scratched or even ripped from the enthusiastic male. Injured hens won’t let the rooster mate them, resulting in poor fertility. As a breeder, this often goes unnoticed unless hens are regularly checked. It can be very hard to see wounds with all the feathers in the way.
Our high quality chicken saddles provide protection for the girls and grip for the boys. In the past, before we realized the damage that can occur, we had birds die from having their sides ripped open. This happened despite the claws being trimmed and the spurs cut off! (We highly recommend doing this as well). Now all our birds wear a chicken saddle for the entire breeding season.
Easy to put on by yourself.
Our saddles are very easy to put on. They fit a large range of sizes because of their unique fastening system. We use metal snaps on the ends of each strap for durability, which gives maximum adjustment. There is no need to bend their through small loops, simply wrap the strap around their wing and fasten. When the cover flap is done up, there are no loose straps to get caught. The straps are soft and won’t cut into the birds, like elastic straps can.
Because of being able to lock each strap to the right length, the saddle does not slip from side to side, which happens if the straps just slide through a fold in the top. It is extremely rare for our saddles to come off if adjusted properly. On a rare occasion the chicken may flap their or appear uncomfortable with this strange thing on their back. They soon get over it (usually within an hour or two) and then you can get the from it for as long as they need. Please be patient and give them time to get used to it. In our breeding season we would have about 70 hens wear them and we have never had one not get used to it.
