Thank you so much. She's came a long way from the beat up scruffy hen I got 10 months ago.

All they need is good care and a bit of love.

She’s actually a Cinnamon Queen, I believe she was supposed to be a RIR, but TSC…you know lol I believe she’s the one that’s a SLW hen crossed with a RIR rooster. Someone correct me if I’m wrong, I’m pretty new to this, it’s only what I’ve been told and it seems fitting
