A chicken that loves to wander about has been given a high vis jacket - to help it cross the road.

Rescue chicken Billie Jean likes to roam near her home at The Railway Inn at the village of Cam in Gloucestershire.

But landlady Sharron Brimble said their loving animal, who is well-known with the regulars, has begun to 'wonder a little bit further afield than the garden'.

So they decided to get a special high viz jacket - to ensure drivers are made aware of Billie Jean when she goes on her adventures.

Sharron said: "We've had a few comments on Facebook saying that they were worried about Billie Jean crossing the road."

"So we decided to get her a high viz jacket!"

"She's a real character and likes to be on her own - she doesn't like to be around any other chickens."

She added: "Billie Jean likes to be fed, particularly cheese crackers sometimes when she comes into the pub. We hope this keeps her safe!"
