Avian Influenza is a highly contagious viral infection of birds and is classed as a notifiable disease. It is a legal requirement to report suspected cases to the Animal and Plant Health Agency (APHA).ROSE'S STORY
Rose was named after the flower, and in Shakespeare’s opinion, she was just as sweet as a Rose to Lindsay, her keeper. Lindsay names all her hens after flowers and gardening is a hobby that she and her mum share. Lindsay is one of our BHWT volunteers and she adopted Rose when she was one of the team’s poorly hens.

Caged hens never get to see their own eggs as they roll away once laid so sitting on them is a novelty and sometimes the weight of the hen can break a fragile shell. Usually egg eating starts with a hen laying SOFT OR MISSING EGG SHELLS The second egg may spend less time than normal in the shell gland, and the result is a missing egg shell.

Demelza
"In summer Demelza enjoys sunbathing in the morning sun, returning to the shade as it gets warmer. She often indulges in a quick snooze, but makes sure to lie on her corn to stop not only the other hens, but also the colony of sparrows that live in the rafters of our cottage from helping themselves to a snack. She certainly seems to be enjoyingher retirement!"
Kentucky
"She’s been part of the family for three years, along with up to nine other girls. She has a big personality and when treats are scattered she prefers chasing the others away rather than eating. She behaves like a dog, following humans and chasing our cats around the garden. Being nosy, a vantage point like the bird bath is perfect."The girls
"The ladies enjoying a stroll in the garden. They are now all fully feathered and quite tame. We have daily snuggles, though some are more affectionate than others. My cat has resigned herself to the fact that these are the new ladies of the house, and garden, and that she must keep well out of their way!"Demelza
