Nestle Turns 3 Years Old

Happy 3rd birthday Nestle!
Nestle has been our pet for 2.5 years this month.
Nestle's 3rd birthday is a milestone as none of our pet chickens
have ever lived that long before! Nestle is a hybrid hen and not
an Isabrown breed which may explain her longevity?
Nestle's egg laying days are over as she becomes an old chook.
Nestle started moulting on 2nd June 2015 which
 cooincided with the start of winter in Australia.
Nestle rests more as she uses her energy to grow new feathers.
Time to preen the new feathers.
