Chickens Suit “A gadget that no one needs but everyone wants to have”, the ChickensSuit® website promises no more and no less than a “piece of freedom”.

show me your chickens suit and i tell you who you are the theme of this world expo is nature and man. fashion is hu-man. if animals are wearing clothes it means hu-man-izing them. we love to make animals human (e.g. animation) because this way we believe to understand them better. if we dress animals then only those who appeal to our heart - "useless" animals like cats and dogs. a chicken is useful. it tastes good and it lays eggs - so why would we dress it? dressing a chicken means "secondary" domestication - first for use, then for love.

  • Breadcrumbs are the only suite I like my chicken wearing. Although these do look freaking great.
  • wow. just, wow.
  • chy needs to see this. isn't he done moving yet?
  • is it wrong that this makes me want a house chicken even more?

  • On first look, I thought "cute" Then I saw the movies. "Art!. Genius!"
  • That's amazing, although I wonder if the chickens are actually happy in their suits. We had pet chickens when I was a kid. If you desire a pet chicken, get a hen - for the eggs. I don't know how well they'd domesticate, though, for patita - we had outdoor chickens.
  • Ow. Have we humans not learnt our lesson? First cats, then chickens, and I'm sure dogs are being subjected to similar indignacies... One day they will rise and the enslaved humanity, dressed as little sailor boys, will weep for our collective folly. Oh, yes. Ha. Those are really funny. Now I know what to get for my mother's chicken...
  • While posting fowl link with someone in mind, MoFi of late has been rather benign! The news, alas, I had been unaware... Chy, oh Chy, where doest thou migrate?
  • ah hell, I could always dress the parrots.
  • Oh patita, and I thought dressing the chickens was bad!
  • for the record, I got the plain bird diaper for one of them. After 10 minutes of wrestling to get it on her she certainly wasn't very happy with me. Not even an almond and a trip outside made her feel better. It now sits in the bin with toy parts, waiting for me to get brave enough to con her into wearing it again.
  • oh my....people have WAY too much time on their hands....
