On January 29th we collected 5 more Ex-Battery Hens, from the Hen Welfare Trusts rescue centre, near Coventry. I had only one Hen remaining from my Original Three. So I enlarged the Hen Run to accomodate these extra Hens. They now appear to have settled in nicely, after some early "pecking", which is natural. Hopefully they'll all get along well . I have also made a proper Hen Enclosure at the rear of my garden, so they can run outside in more space on fine days. The latest Hens are named after flowers!... Bluebell, Violet, Daisy, Rose & Lily.
