JellyB Posted September 2, 2007 Share Posted September 2, 2007 Yesterday I went to get 2 new hens (ex battery ones) and came home with 3 Queenie Lady and Mavis Poor Mavis has no feathers on her body, just scraggy wings, scraggy neck feathers and a few tail feather. I couldn't leave her there. She had to come home with me. They all seem to be settling in together, not much pecking going on but I'm keeping an eye on things.
