    Single hen?

    I was just talking about this earlier this morning while observing my flock of 6 hens. A flock is necessary for hens’ health and well being. Hens have a social order and each hen in the flock holds a certain role and responsibility for everyone’s survival. I wouldn’t think even two hens would be...
