Sharing the Joy of Hen Keeping with Feather & Egg’s Sabina Richardson - Episode 52

When most people think of hens, the image of a typical brown egg-layer springs immediately to mind without any consideration for the bold blues, lavenders, partridge colours and intricate lacing found in rarer breeds.

Feather & Egg’s Sabina Richardson is a fellow poultry fancier with a commitment to sharing the joy and wonder of pure and rare hen breeds. Sabina joins Arthur this week as we explore the friendliest, rarest and most gorgeous hens to keep, as well as some invaluable advice on keeping them clean and safe from vermin.

In this episode, discover:

• How hen keeping grew from Sabina’s personal hobby into a shared passion • Advice on protecting your hens from rats and foxes • Which breeds are ideal for families and young children • How to design your hen runs to stay clean • Ways to prepare for the potential impacts of bird flu • Why we should all play our part in preserving pure breeds
