Please take 13 minutes of your time to watch this video .. be you female or male, this is important for everybody to recognise and acknowledge and understand.
She makes so much sense!

We brought three new laying hens home yesterday.
One beautiful strong black bird whose feathers shimmer peacock green in the sunlight. She is feisty and doesn't like us at all! She wants to fight and I'm looking forward to introducing her to the psychotic dogs this afternoon .. I think that they will come off second best. We have named her 'Happy' in the hopes that her name will improve her attitude.
One delicate submissive white bird who has a chipped beak. The chip on the end of her top beak is bigger than the chip on her bottom beak. She seems friendly enough and has been happily eating and drinking today without any problems, so she should be ok. I named her 'Hector' simply because a friend told me yesterday that she liked the name. Yes, it's a quirky name for a female bird!
One brown/red relaxed girl who looks just like our Helen. I did email Helen's namesake a few days ago and asked her if she would like to name one of our new hens, but she hasn't been back to me, so Adoring Husband and I have decided to name our third girl, Helen II. Helen served us well and provided lots of delicious eggs, so I hope that her successor can find the same happiness here. It suits her.
Photos will come tomorrow, so that I can introduce them formally :)
Nite all.

Well, first time out of the pen and she decided that the safest spot in the garden was on TOP of the chook pen .. just one quick flight would take her over the fence and to freedom!!
