I don’t own chickens. Or any birds for that matter. And even if I did, I probably wouldn’t dress them up as adorable feathered crossing guards.

But sometimes the algorithms for targeted ads on #SocialMedia are so very wrong, they’re simply delightful.

Still, I’m very happy they’re not part of #Mastodon.

@Rachel_Thorn My first thought, coincidentally, was ‘this is a real missed opportunity for a good crossing the road joke.’

This is a safety issue. Those chickens definitely needs those vests.

this is really silly, but they actually have something called saddles for chickens, designed to protect them from getting pecked by other chickens

@PJ_Evans unless they attract predators? But definitely helpful for crossing a road.

A friend of mine who allows her #parrots to #FreeFlight in her home, uses similar vests to keep the bird poop from messing the house, and also for harnesses to leash and keep them from flying away outdoors.

It might sound weird to non-bird people, but it's actually very practical.
