A woman from Oxfordshire has started knitting sweaters for rescued battery hens that have lost their feathers. Jane Blaine, of Eynsham, said when a friend first asked her to knit jumpers for chickens she thought it was a joke.
Ms Blaine, who has previously made coats for dogs, said: "When I saw these poor battery hens without any feathers, I thought I'd give it a try."
...
Ms Blaine said measuring the chickens was problematic. "Obviously they have quite small necks and big bodies," she said. "And I had to make room for the wings. It was a bit like knitting a funnel."
