Trying to scratch out a living as a comedian? Or do you just like to crack up your flock? Either way, Amazon’s got a great gift for folks with a sense of humor about their accessories.
It’s a rubber chicken purse! Resembling a white hen settled on her nest, the purse looks functional as well as funny. It’s sold by New York City gift company The Sarut Group, and 86% of the bag’s 760 reviewers have given it at least four stars.
The cheeky carryall sells for $34.95 on Amazon.
What’s the big deal about a bag that looks like a bird?
Reviewers leave comments like, “I highly recommend this purse for the country girl at heart!” from Nina B.
Or: “This bag was so weird that I knew I had to have it,” wrote Ronnie Deputy. “I work at a local produce stand/market and we have free-roaming chickens on premises … I knew this bag would be a hit!”
“People love the hen bag all around the world,” raved buyer Danielle Vincent. “It really is a conversation starter and broke down cultural barriers like no amount of well-meaning language butchering could.”
Take a stroll through Instagram, and you’ll find a good number of posts dedicated to this chicken bag. There’s even a @chickenbagadventures account that features photographic evidence of all the fun adventures one lucky chicken bag has taken with its owner.
