More Helpful Hens
Pet hens, it seems, will turn their hand to anything to show their gratitude...
Dolly & Dave were quite happy to offer some advice to keeper, Matthew, as he fixed his motorbike. We’re not sure if the bike was roadworthy afterwards, but the girls laid eggs to keep Matthew happy.
Skylar, above right, was only too happy to help with an Easter Day treasure hunt laid on for Oonagh and Ted. According to keeper and mum, Charlotte Hook, Skylar is “the friendliest hen we’ve ever rehomed who likes to lay her eggs in a cupboard instead of the hen house!” Great egg treasure hunt tactic by Skylar! Cool chicken.
Ginger Saxon decided her best supporting role during C19 was to help owner, Alec, get to grips with home working.
Liz Riley told us that her hen, Beyoncé, knows as well as anyone that you have to keep up with your tax returns. Look after your buck buck boks!
Kent rehomer, Olivia Tuohy, sent us this fabulous photo of Scarlet perched on a sign painted by husband, Andy, in their front garden to thank people as they pass by and cheer them on their daily exercise route.
Audrey Willicombe has certainly made herself at home, as Samantha, her keeper, told us:
“Audrey our house hen loves being close. During the day she’s either sitting next to me while I work or kicking the dog off her bed on the floor, and during the evening she’s always snuggled up on the back of the sofa watching TV!”
That’s our definition of a spoilt hen! Just how we like them.
