Gifts for chicken lovers: finding the perfect one!

Need a gift for the chicken lover in your life? You've just found it!

There are lots of chicken and rooster (cockerel) gifts out there. So what makes this set so different?

This list was created by a chicken keeper and chicken lover – me! I have all these gifts. Every last one.

So you're not buying products you're unsure about. You can rest easy, knowing that everything I recommend, here and everywhere on my website, is of excellent quality and either incredibly useful for direct use with chickens, or answers a real need in the chicken lover – a "oh please, I must have that!" appeal!

How to find the ideal gift for chicken lovers.

Gifts for chicken lovers - pin for later.

There are two sections on this page: general gifts, which will be suitable whether the occasion is a birthday, anniversary, or a "just because"; and the second section which is seasonally-related gifts – items specific to Christmas.

In both sections, you'll find the less expensive items listed first, followed by the more extravagant.

There are gifts both for the chicken keeper, and for the chickens themselves.

Each link takes you to another page of my blog where I review the product.

In that way, you'll know exactly what you're buying, what its quality is like and how it's useful.

You'll also know it's been tried and tested by an experienced chicken keeper (me!). I only suggest products I've used and loved myself.

Inexpensive gifts, good for any occasion.

Egg collecting apron

Thumbnail link to my review of this egg collecting apron.

If you have chickens, you'll have eggs. And eggs need to be collected.

This apron is specifically made to gather all those delicious, nutritious eggs. But is it well made? How many eggs does it hold? And will the eggs fall out of the pockets?

Based on my personal experience, this is a review of a gift which any chicken keeper will be pleased to receive.

If you have chickens, you also have eggs. It's just the way it is!

The Egg Skelter is a novel and very efficient way of storing all those delicious eggs, and making sure they're eaten in the right order.

They also make a great talking point on your kitchen work surface!

More expensive chicken equipment as gifts.

The best automatic chicken feeder

A review of the best automatic chicken feeder on the market - link.

It may not be the traditional gift, but any chicken keeper will be delighted with this feeder.

It saves time, it makes sure the flock always has enough food available, and best of all, it's rodent-proof.

I've had mine now for years, and it's still going strong. I've given it to two other chicken-lovers and they've both said "best gift ever"!

Find out why I love it in my review.

It's all about the coop!

Eglu Cube coop review – click to see article.

Let me guess. The person you want to please most in the world wants to keep chickens. Just a few, in your back yard.

But where to start?

A coop is at the same time the most essential and the most costly item you'll need to buy. My review of the Eglu coop, ideal for a small number of hens, explains why it's worth spending a little more, to save money in the long-term.

Read all about it, here.
