“Some folks say that on a cold night, when the moon is a-howlin’, you can still see her at the old farmhouse table, knitting shrugs for the chickens.”

This isn’t a joke…
it’s just a really bad idea and waste of yarn I’d like somebody to pay $15 for.

She isn’t standing like that because it looks fancy. You’re actually weighing her down and probably hurting her.
Where is the Chicken Liberation Front when you need them?

I like the “orKnitted Wrist Cuff” part. Oh, good – because I really wanted to buy this gem of craftsmanship but I didn’t have a chicklet to torment!

So… Autumn Magical Fairy Nest is also a chick poncho AND a wrist cuff?

This is not a sentence that bodes well for sanity, whether you know “she” refers to a chicken or not.

Oh – oh no – I think I might be partly responsible for this.

“Anyway, if you have a Bantam Chick and need something for the holidays or if you know someone who raises Bantam Hens this is the perfect gift.”
(Don’t know about you guys, but I guess my Christmas shopping is totally done for this year!)
“…this poncho is only for very special occasions – and only with proper supervision. Never leave a chick unsupervised with any clothing or toys. Mostly I think the poncho is best for when the two of you are cuddling”
(Is the cuddling also supervised? Or are we going to need to call Chick Protective Services?)
“I’m not crazy, just a jeweler who dabbles in fiber & raises Bantam Chicks.”
(Spot the contradiction in this sentence!)

That chicken looks rather bewildered.
It’s cute though. (the chicken, not the ‘poncho’)

The great thing is that this listing now has 4086 views!
Rock on Regretsy!
from the listing: “Never leave a chick unsupervised with any clothing or toys. Mostly I think the poncho is best for when the two of you are cuddling, you want to take some sweet pictures, or for a few seconds when company arrives & you want to show her off.”
So, basically, the seller admits that wrapping a chick in yarn in INHUMANE!
And, yeah, as one of those crazy commie nature loving environmentalists’ children — I’ve spent my fair share of time tending to lost baby birds — they shit like every 10 minutes. I really wouldn’t have a bird just sitting on my kitchen table… let alone one that I had adorned with a knitted bondage outfit.
Holy Moly.

Welcome, friends! This is lil Dayna. Isn’t she beautiful? Moreso than her nine sisters, for whom I am also knitting useless chicken garments.
Wait, where are you going? You haven’t had a chance to cuddle with her yet!

Colored yarn restrains.
Poncho keeps her warm and cute.
Struts angrily and hates you.

Wow, I thought it was just people with tiny toy dogs who liked to dress ‘em up. There’s a whole world of chicken kooks out there I didn’t know about.
In fact, if she could get together with the poodle bridal outfit lady, they could take some REALLY cute pictures.
Actually I kinda like her jewelry. I think the chick outfits is a bit of a distracting element in the shop, though. I wonder if the jewelry I order comes with some parasitic attachments?

Hmm. The chick is named Bantam Chick Lil Dayna. The fiber comes from Dayna the Crafty Scientist. Hmm.

Squeeeee.. I grew up on a chicken farm bringing chickens in the house. I think this is kinda cute. When you hold a chick your hands get hot and sweaty, and it makes the chicky sticky…So I can see this being a reasonable short-term thing. If you want to hold them, it’s much easier than a blanket.

Yeah, I saw that episode of X-Files, too. What the hell is happening on that farm?

“She’s so beautiful – even more so than her nine sisters.”
Okay, way to traumatize your 9 other chicks, lady.
Seriously, what is the standard for chicken beauty? Coloring? Head structure? Breading? Clue me in, I don’t raise Bantam Sweatercuff Stands.

#28 greenfuzz :
This is one of my favorite things on here ever. It’s so sublimely retarded and sweet and ridiculous. The fact that this person is imagining a market of other chicken owners who want little sweaters is totally preposterous.
Beautifully said! I hope li’l Dayna has fifteen bucks, since the sweater was made especially for her.

you do realize that you can also use this to keep the fried chicken warm, I think a leg or wing would fit nicely….the leftover fibers may stick in the teeth..but I’m sure there’s some really “sweet” handmade toothpicks listed on etsy…oh, hey! the bling bling turtle foot would work!

Does anyone know the proper way to cite the text referring of her item description? I’d like to use the “more beautiful than her nine sisters,” part in my next novel. Yep.

Why am I afraid that poor Little Dayna is NEVER allowed to have the garment removed; thus stunting her growth so she will never, ever get big and leave and not cuddle again?
