Wings on top becoming damaged

[Penny]

I have a young pullet that has wings which lay on top along her back, rather than tucking the tips under the saddle area. She tends to be the rooters favorite and her wing feathers are getting shredded. Is there a term for this? Is there anything I can do for her? (Oh...believe me...im already working on getting him some more ladies!)

Get hold of some saddles for the girls. Not sure who on here sells them maybe @Bayvistafarm

Kind of off subject, but made me think of a friend that is a rodeo cowboy.

One night he and his wife were checking into a hotel. He was wearing spurs and carrying his bronc saddle, his wife had their overnight bag.

The clerk, an older lady checked them in. She scowled while handing over the key and said to the wife: "Men can be such beasts!"

Always tickled me, that story.

Maybe I'm wrong but it sounds like you already have a saddle on her and her wings are still being damaged? If that's the case you can get saddles with an added piece of fabric for wing protection...or add it on to your existing ones. Here's a pic.

My one Cochin girl had ripped up wing feathers last year as well. I think the more clumsy the rooster the more damaged the hen...

That might work. Thankyou! Her back is fine at this point, but her wings look terrible! lol
