The hens were treated to scraps of fresh mango before Christmas.
Speckles (left) rolled her piece of mango in the dirt.
Chickadee (right) started moulting in December.
Frenchy and Speckles stand amongst the sprawling grape vine.
The hens enjoy eating the fresh grapes as a snack.
The hens huddle on a hot and humid Christmas day.
Chickadee (left) has lost her black tail feathers and a lot of brown fluff.

Speckles looks very fat after eating her Christmas Day lunch (lettuce leaves!)
Frenchy started moulting before Christmas which makes her look old and tired.
The hens have gone off the lay during the moulting season.
Lovely new feathers will grow in the new year.
