Snap: Little Brown Hen

Wednesday has arrived again and this week I am showing you some of our many hens to join in with Helena's Snap. You may already know that we have 32 thousand free range laying hens who produce a similar number (slightly less) of eggs a day.
Firstly here is one of our beauties close up.


Beauty may not be the word I use to describe them when they find their way into my garden. They will scratch at anything they can find.


Fortunately Sky the sheepdog is an experienced "hendog" too. She is good at rounding up the strays. Apologies for the quality of the photo.


Lastly a  hen Snap. What are all stylish horses wearing on the farm this year?


The latest camouflage!
