Help your hens break the internet with the BHWT’s social media whizkid Shannen Pollard

Snap Happy

The best hen photos stop your scroll because they show personality. Get down to hen level and capture her face properly. If your phone has portrait mode, try it – it works surprisingly well on chickens! Clear, crisp images beat anything overproduced. Holding a hen affectionately makes a lovely picture and instantly says: these birds are loved. At rehomings, if a BHWT van or logo happens to be in shot, that works wonders.
