Hens are just like any other pet and will benefit from a daily routine, good husbandry, a healthy and balanced diet and regular exercise.
They might need a little extra TLC in extreme weather conditions, particularly any girls that are a bit feather-bare. Your flock will no doubt be partial to the odd treat too, but we recommend you limit the number of treats to ensure they maintain a balanced diet.
We’ve put together some handy health tips to help you keep your girls in tip top condition. If you do have any questions or concerns, you can contact our Hen Helpline on 01884 860084.
