Happy new year to all my lovely customers!! 🥳🥳 A tad late I know 😅
I've been busy caring for chickens here at The Mother Hen HQ, prepping my eldest daughters early January birthday (we now have a teenager in the house! 😲) oh... and mainly defrosting animal drinkers!! 🤣 🥶🧊🥶

The gorgeous Pop and Dolly have stayed recently 🥰🥰 Dolly runs out each morning like bat out of hell, she's very much a morning chicken!! 😄 Poor little Pop started moulting heavily while she was here, so extra 'tonic seeds' of an afternoon and a dash of poultry spice in the feed to keep her nutrients up! I always treat any visitors exactly how I would treat my own animals 🥰 🐔🥰
