Our hens and guinea fowl have their own enclosure at the bottom of the pitch & putt course.
The henhouse is the original one which was built over 70 years ago.
We have 4 laying hens, 2 guinea fowl, 2 fancy hens and a bantam cockerel.

Wonderful to watch, but not so welcome for the hens (!) are the large buzzards and hawks which circle the woods.

Guinea fowl are excellent "guard dogs"& will screech loudly if they feel threatened
