13 year old hen

My beautiful Beatrix is 13.5 years. She’s a Brabanter. I think this is an amazing age and I’m frightened she won’t last the winter.

That is an amazing age! Good luck!

Shes really, really pretty!!

Thank you so much. She has had a lovely life and because she goes to bed early escaped various fox strikes . She has been with me for 12.5 years. I assume she is 13.5 because she was fully grown when she came to me. That pic was taken yesterday! No grey hair like me!!!
