Our first 4 were battery hens from the BHWT, Baldilocks and the three Bares!!! Mummy, Daddy and Baby!!!
Baldilocks, as her name would suggest was the baldest of the lot, but within about 6 months all four of them were fully feathered and laying well.
Baldilocks went broody, unusual for a hybrid and raised a brood of 6, it was so nice to see her from the dishevelled pile she was when she arrived to clucking round the garden showing her chicks what to do.
Sadly she passed away a year to the day of us getting them but we know in that year she enjoyed a proper free range chickeny life!!!
