We live in town and dont have a large garden but hens can thrive in courtyards and urban gardens alike, if looked after carefully and housed properly. So far we've averaged an egg a day from our two young hens.

Its a publication to be proud of - not the stuffy local magazine printed on cheap paper that we're often used to.
