Hensington Palace Australia

19/05/2024

This handsome young lad (he’s about 2 years old) is looking for a new pad with some lovely cuckoo ladies to call his own… Or any bantam ladies really - I don’t think he’s fussy, but the big girls are unimpressed with his efforts. Pick up from Upper Brookfield or Fig Tree Pocket.

These beautiful black mottled Belgian d’Uccle hens are available now from Fig Tree Pocket, in Brisbane’s inner west. Message for more information. Please note that the blue mottled girls are not available. Cheers, Kim

Hey crew, many of you know that with the passing of Di, it’s been necessary to move some of our chickens (including a rooster) into temporary care arrangements. Unfortunately, my chickens on holiday appear to be attractive to a clever snake. So far, I've lost two of my lavender girls in three days. I'm wondering if anyone else might have the ability to house and look after 8-10 hens and one rooster for me until the school holidays (I'm looking at two and half to three weeks). Obviously, I'd pay for food and your time.

Today I am heartbroken to share the passing of one half of Hensington Palace, my beautiful friend Di McArthur. Di was not only an awesome crazy chicken lady, she was a passionate breeder who mentored and inspired many - including myself. Her loss will be felt throughout the chicken world, and particularly within Hensington Palace. Some people are born to change lives - Di was one of them. Gone, but never ever forgotten 💔

Babies, babies everywhere!!! Our mottle pen is a busy little place at the moment with 5 hens mothering a total of 26 chicks aged from 3 days to 2 weeks old. I’m smitten 🥰

9 new chicks with 3 mums is fascinating to watch. The chicks seem to be easy about which mum is theirs but not the mums so much.

Did you know...
Just before hatching, a chick turns in the shell so its right eye is next to the shell (and absorbs light through the shell) and its left eye is covered by its body. As a result the right eye develops near-sightedness to allow a chicken to search for food, while the left eye develops far-sightedness, to allow a chicken to search for predators from afar. That is why when a hawk flies overhead, you will notice your chickens tilt their heads with their left eye to the sky.

Excited to have one of our handsome lads right at the top of this brilliant article 🥰

The search for Australia's Next Top Chicken started as a bit of fun, but turned into a viral celebration of the most unlikely of feathered friends.

More video of the older six. I can’t believe that their foster mum is still keeping them close to her.
