ready to flap your wings as we dive into the world of hens! Hens, or female chickens, are one of the most commonly found animals on farms all over the world. These amazing birds come in many shapes, sizes and colors, ranging from small bantam hens to large, fluffy ones with feathers that look like they're wearing a pair of pants! Their bodies are covered in feathers and they have a red or pinkish piece of flesh called a comb on top of their heads.  \nFrom their feathery appearance, let's hop over to the topic of what hens munch on. Hens eat a variety of things including grains, seeds, vegetables and even small bugs! They are also known to peck at the ground in search of tasty morsels hidden in the soil.

Hens can live for several years, and they continue to lay eggs for most of their lives.  \nEggs are a big part of why humans and hens have such a clucktastic relationship!
