Chickens in sweaters are the subject of this Daily Telegraph article. It's not as loopy as it sounds, actually, because these animals are being rescued from egg-production farms and genuinely need the extra warmth because they're balding.
Still, I doubt that the stripes and Christmas-themed patterned are strictly necessary. But if I had to knit tons of chicken sweaters, I'd probably try to make it fun for myself.
This picture reminds me of an illustration from Jerry Pinkney's The Talking Eggs.

Yeah, not as whimsical as it sounds. Still, I'm glad they're getting sweaters and they're no longer trapped in the gears of mechanized agri-business.
