Meet Our Rooftop Education Hens
Millie
Millie is a 9-year old Plymouth Barred Rock Hen and lays light brown eggs. She is a very confident hen, enjoys listening to jazz, and has a pigeon friend named Loretta.
Mickey
Mickey is a 5-year old Silkie Hen and lays light blue eggs. She is a quirky and curious little hen, and has a beautiful blue beak! Mickey was recently donated to us by a sweet family in Brooklyn looking for a home for their solo hen! We are so happy for Millie to have a new buddy.
