Hi everyone!
I'm Liz from Melbourne, Australia, and have just started keeping hens for the first time as an adult. I grew up with a big suburban flock of hens, ducks, guinea pigs, cats and rabbits - all my friends used to ask me if I lived on a farm, despite knowing full well that I lived up the hill from my suburban school
I'm a primary teacher, and have worked at several schools that have hens as part of their learning program. I love that this is becoming more common now. When my school was closed last year in a lockdown, my partner and I took care of the chickens at our place, and we are really excited about having hens of our own now.
Our hens are Hermione Grain-ger, Bellachix Black and Fleur and Gabrielle Delacomb. (As you can tell, we are big Harry Potter nerds
) We are looking forward to meeting other hen lovers and learning as much as possible about chicken care!
