I have a large breed hen, a Wyandotte. Would this fit her comfortably? Does it make them too hot?

Best hen mating saddle I’ve found

My chicken breeds aren’t bantams but small. I should have got a medium not small. But even then, it covers the top of her wings and rump. Other ones I got weren’t as good and didn’t cover the top of the wings - which really needs protected from rooster
Perfect fit
This works perfectly for my smallest hen that was getting bullied! It has allowed her skin to heal and feathers to grow in! Super easy to wash too!

Impossible to apply
The way rhe saddle attaches to the bird requires both hands you have to press a snap connection under hens body which is easy by itself, but impossible on live
The way rhe saddle attaches to the bird requires both hands you have to press a snap connection under hens body which is easy by itself, but impossible on live bird. Its also HOT!! The plastic material gets burning hot in the sun, too hot and uncomfortable

I have a hen who was getting pretty beat up by an overzealous rooster. She was missing many feathers and had one sore that wouldn't heal. I received the saddle and followed the instructions for putting it on. She was very comfortable with it on right away. She's been wearing it a week and the feathers are coming in and the sore is healing nicely now. She doesn't seem to mind it being on at all. Very good product. The little over the wings have snaps so it was very easy to get around the wing and snap it closed.
Not the same material.
Nit the same quality as the ones I purchased 4 yrs ago. Disappointed

What a relief for all of us, hens, me and roosters. These well made, perfectly designed hen saddles protect my girls from avaricious advances. One hen adapted overnight. The other took a couple days to adjust, but both are confident and much happier with the protection. I bought medium and they fit an average hen. Highly recommend if your girls are under pressure.
Made well but size way off
No way this will fit a chicken to small

BEST CHICKEN MATING SADDLE
I use these every spring and summer. My 13 chickens require the protection from my rooster every mating season. You can wash these but sometimes the snaps wear out
I use these every spring and summer. My 13 chickens require the protection from my rooster every mating season. You can wash these but sometimes the snaps wear out after a year. Great Product! I only had to replace 4. I take them off after October when feathers have recovered after molting.
Sturdier than most
The hens have been wearing them for over a month and it has protected their backs from the rooster without damaging their wings at all.
