1N with the hens


We have loved looking after the hens this week. Lots of us have hens at home so we are very knowledgeable.

Every day we have given the hens new food and water. We were really good at keeping the path clean and we found lots of eggs.













Just like 3N we found a ginormous egg...

 ...and when we cracked it open it had 2 yolks!

We weren't sure why it had 2 yolks but we thought it might be that if the egg was fertilised and hatched then twin chicks would come out. If you know the answer then please do let us know.


The hens have had lots of treats from us this week.  We made small parcels filled with seed. The hens had to figure out how to open the parcels to get to the seed which they managed very quickly.
 
As it was Halloween last week we gave the hens a pumpkin and after just one day this what we found...
It had been completely scoffed!
