News just in: she’s been fitted up with a “hen stroller” to take some of her weight but allow her to use her legs to move around.

You should tell the hens owner to cluck off, your only egging them on, at this rate the yolks on you, they need to scratch around for another place to lay

Buying up ex battery chickens to give them a nicer rest of life has been a big thing for decades .
Please remember that being called Woke is in fact a compliment because being the opposite is just plain dumb.
When it first started it was a compliment.

I always think of the opposite of woke as being fast asleep and dreaming of a glorious but non-existent past.

I think this equals that, if not tops it! There's a woman who pushes a dog stroller around the local cemetery. She has a 2 year old Maltese Terrier. There was me thinking "why push a young healthy dog round, I'd make it walk"! Well, today I found out why she pushes the stroller around. It's not for her dog, no it's for a rescued pigeon! According to another dog walker she found the bird on a supermarket car park looking a bit disheveled, last November. She picked the pigeon up and took it home. She has two cages, one in the living room, one in her bedroom. According to the fellow dog walker, when she goes to bed she puts the bird in the bedroom cage so it doesn't get lonely, then come the morning she puts it in the living room cage. When she takes the bird out in the dog stroller she puts a net over it to stop the bird from falling out. Again, according to the fellow dog walker, she's called it Lieutenant Pigeon after.

I saw the pigeon in the pram today! The owner was camera shy, but didn't mind me taking photos of her pigeon.
She told me she takes it on the bus for days out. Tomorrow she's taking 'Lieutenant Pigeon' to Blackpool!

Actually, not all hens are chickens, as "hen" is a generic term for a female bird.All hens are chickens, but not all chickens are hens!
And I'm not sure why the previous poster thinks that using Chicken is an American import. According to etymology online, while originally referring to the young of the domestic fowl, it was in common use by middle English to be regardless of age.
