Nestle Turns 5

Nestle turns 5 years old this month (June 2017).
We are very happy that Nestle is our oldest surviving
pet hen whom we've owned for 4.5 years. 
Nestle looks like a healthy 5 year old hen with her new feathers and tail.
She is very soft and fluffy with a strong personality (sooky and dominant).
Nestle went to the vet recently and had her
long toe nails trimmed by the vet nurse.
Nestle may be the smallest hen, but she's certainly
the boss of Chickadee and the 2 Happy Hens!

Hide and Seek

Chickadee hides in her favourite bush.
Nestle camouflages with the leaf litter and
feathers on the ground left over from moulting.
 Nestle hides behind the bush.
Nestle pokes her head through the bush.
I can see you!
Chickadee sits under the bush and pecks a hole in the dirt
whilst Nestle has a nap on a pile of autumn leaves.
 The 2 Happy Hens feel safe in the garden and have a rest.
Nestle hides her face behind a leafy bush branch.
We can still see you Nestle!
