Luvachicken Posted April 20, 2020 Share Posted April 20, 2020 In these times of being shut in, your mind starts to wander and mine started to wonder about some chicken harnesses I saw ages ago on Amazon. You can strap your chicken in and take it for a walk. Does anyone do this ? If I had them, I wouldn't take my girls for a walk but maybe they could potter round my garden with me for a few minutes ? I don't think my garden is safe enough for them to be in it all the time. Please help me stop wandering / wondering xx 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mullethunter Posted April 21, 2020 Share Posted April 21, 2020 Not sure what to say Luvachicken! As ridiculous as it sounds I suppose it could actually work for a potter around the garden! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luvachicken Posted April 21, 2020 Author Share Posted April 21, 2020 I've also thought about getting an invisible dog My wanderings are making me go a bit bonkers. Hubby said he wouldn't walk with me if I got one of them. I couldn't believe you could even still buy them. Only people of a certain age will know what I am talking about. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I was kid, my dad and me would just take a leash on a walk and call to a non existing dog. When people would ask us what the dog looked like, we would describe either something the size of a guinea pig or a hippo! 😂 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickenNutter Posted April 30, 2020 Share Posted April 30, 2020 I can't imagine that chickens would like this, seems unnecessary to me. Another US invention like chicken nappies? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lewis Posted April 30, 2020 Share Posted April 30, 2020 I think things like these and the high vis jackets from Omlet have a comedy value and I see some use with parrots when learning to free fly but not really with chickens. I think they'd much prefer it if they could free range with you present, if you think the garden is unsafe, rather than on a lead! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luvachicken Posted May 2, 2020 Author Share Posted May 2, 2020 Don't worry, I haven't bought the harnesses or an invisible dog. Thank you for all your thoughts on them though. I will save my money for when all this is over and top up my supply of Pekins instead 😊 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
