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. This healthy diet helps them to produce the eggs that we humans enjoy.  \nSpeaking of eggs, it's time to crack open the life cycle of these fascinating creatures. The life of a hen begins as an egg, which after being incubated for about 21 days, hatches into a cute little chick. These chicks grow rapidly and within five months, they are grown hens laying eggs of their own. 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! Humans have been keeping hens for thousands of years, not just for their eggs, but also for their meat. Hens have also been known to form bonds with humans, recognizing their faces and voices.
