Meet Freckles, one of our newest additions at the Funny Farm, who joined us in 2024! She began her journey as a house chicken and is now happily adapting to life on the farm with her own flock. One thing is for sure: Freckles absolutely loves the human visitors, and the Funny Farm has plenty of affection to share!
Just like people, chickens have unique personalities—some are curious and friendly, while others can be a bit shy. Freckles is quite outgoing with her human friends, though she tends to be a little more reserved around her feathered companions. When she isn’t socializing, this beautiful hen keeps busy laying eggs. Did you know that a healthy hen can produce anywhere from 250 to 300 eggs a year? That’s about 5 to 6 eggs a week! It’s truly impressive how productive these lovely ladies can be!
